Jérusalem, Tombeau des Juges, Détails, 1854, Salted paper print from paper negative, Image: 23.2 x 32.5 cm (9 1/8 x 12 13/16 in.), Photographs, Auguste Salzmann (French, 1824–1872), Beyond this evocative void lie sixty-three rock-cut tombs. The inky interior speaks to the camera’s technological limitations—no reliable flash technology existed yet and Salzmann’s paper negatives were not sensitive enough to be exposed in low light
