Description |
English: The Greek monastery of St George was built in the late fifth century. It is believed to contain the cave where Elijah was fed by the ravens. It was hewn out of the precipitous cliffs of the Wady Kelt, a few kilometres above Jericho. Lambert used a vertical format to get a sense of the unusual location, the precipitous cliffs, and the way the monastery is part of the rock face. |
