Jerusalem is a 1865 oil by Edward Lear, held at Ashmolean Museum.
This painting shows a cityscape with buildings and trees. In the foreground, there are hills with some trees and bushes. The city is in the background, with many buildings and a few trees. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich and vibrant color. The artist used a range of colors, from dark greens and browns to lighter blues and grays. The overall effect is one of depth and texture, with the hills and buildings seeming to rise up from the canvas. If you like this painting, you might also want to check out the work of Edward Lear.
