The “Kotel HaMa’aravi,” Western Wall of Jerusalem’s Temple Mount stands as a testimony to yesterday, today and tomorrow, bound by centuries of tears, fears, dreams and hopes absorbed into her ancient walls. Echoing timeless prayers, her sun drenched stones glitter with the golden hues of sunrise and sunset in this rendition of Ellen Miller Braun’s “Seventy Names of Jerusalem.”
Shining eternally gold, “Jerusalem” glows warmly over this holy site.

The “Jerusalem” in this design is created using Jerusalem’s 70 names, which so eloquently describe her many vibrant and spiritual qualities.*

The number 70 is significant in a number of ways in Judaism and it’s teachings:

HaShem, G-d, has 70 Names.

70 Nations descended from Noah.

70 languages emerged after the Tower of Babel.

The Torah was translated into the 70 languages of the Nations.

The Torah has 70 names.

The Torah was transmitted to 70 elders.

The 70 sages of the Sanhedrin safeguarded the Torah.

The Torah was engraved on 70 stones after Joshua crossed the Jordan.

Israel has 70 names.

There were 70 people who went down to Egypt with Jacob.

The Jews celebrate 70 holy days per year, 52 Sabbaths and 18 festivals

(including all the days of Pesach and Succot)

During Succot, there were 70 sacrifices offered for the 70 nations.

The Temple was built with 70 pillars.

The Holy City of Jerusalem had 70 names.

((Midrash Zuta

The Seventy Names of Jerusalem is an enchanting deviation from Ellen Miller Braun’s other micro calligraphy illustrations. Ellen originally created this as a gift for her second son-in-law, sewing a special satchel for his prayer shawl. The satchel was designed with paint on fabric and embroidery. The final piece was then transformed into this stunning picture with Jerusalem’s seventy spiritual names inscribed in gold, hovering over the ancient wall. These spiritual names embody the strength of Jerusalem and the beauty of her centuries old religious significance. The choice of colors, matching the sunrise and sunset at “the Kotel,” came from the wedding invitation which Ellen also created for the new couple.

Ellen Bible Art Calligraphy

Ellen creates her Bible Art using very small letters which are called micro calligraphy. The finished product is a beautiful picture created from these small letters. Micrography is another term used for this kind of art. Ellen chose the term micro calligraphy for her Bible Art to express the exact meaning of her work: tiny letters and words, calligraphy, blending together to create the designs and figures on her paper. Ellen creates her micro calligraphy art by writing with a fine tipped calligraphy pen, dipping it into a spectrum of water color paints. The secret to micro calligraphy art is patience. The pictures take anywhere from one month to a year, to create each original piece.
