Abstract
The paper deals with the analysis of Jerusalem icon from 1841, which is now located in the Studenica Monastery near Kraljevo, Serbia. It represents the type of icons that pilgrims brought from their travels to the Holy Land as a memory and a blessing, and they depicted Palestinian holy sites. These iconographically extremely complex, visually attractive, and culturally significant icons lately attract more attention of researchers dealing with the history of pilgrimage and visual representation of Jerusalem and the Holy Land, and related production and dissemination of souvenirs.
