Carl Friedrich Heinrich Werner

Carl Friedrich Heinrich Werner was a German watercolorist.

Carl Werner studied painting and architecture in Germany, then moved to Italy, where he painted watercolors for nearly twenty years and exhibited in London and other European cities. From 1862 to 1864 he traveled to Palestine and Egypt. He produced impressive paintings of the architectural monuments of that world. Among his works, the voluminous work "Jerusalem, Bethlehem and the Holy Places" with views of the Holy Land, containing 32 plates, is particularly notable. It is one of the rarest books with color plates on the Middle East.

Werner was one of the few non-Muslims given access to paint the interior of the Dome of the Rock, and there are also views of Bethlehem, Bethany, and the Dead Sea, while Jerusalem includes street scenes, the Greek and Armenian chapels, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Street of David, and the Wailing Wall.
