Histoire de Jérusalem

In this singular, ongoing French graphic novel project from Les Arènes, Histoire de Jérusalem (2022–present) distills the city’s complex, layered history into a single, meticulously researched volume. The first and only issue thus far is a visually rich, chronological narrative that spans millennia, created by a team of historian-authors and artists who bring archaeological and textual scholarship to the page. It matters as an ambitious, accessible synthesis of a famously contested subject, offering a panoramic yet grounded portrait of Jerusalem through the comic medium.
