In this evocative watercolor composition, the artist masterfully portrays prehistoric Safed (Tzfat) in its vibrant hues and bustling activity. Perched atop a mountain, the city's structures are layered, with those in the background appearing elevated compared to the ones in the forefront, creating a dynamic tiered effect.

The cityscape is a maze of closely-knit buildings, reminiscent of a labyrinth with its myriad secret passages and winding alleyways, igniting a sense of curiosity and a desire to explore. Constructed from the iconic Jerusalem stone, the buildings feature a mix of arched and rectangular entrances and windows, accentuated by striking turquoise embellishments. Pockets of greenery punctuate the stonework, adding a refreshing contrast.

The foreground is animated with townspeople, donned in traditional ancient attire, going about their daily routines. Their movements and interactions breathe life into the scene, capturing the essence of a bustling community on a sun-drenched day.

In the distance, the verdant mountains of northern Safed are depicted, gradually melding with the cloud-streaked sky, enhancing the painting's depth and perspective.

Overall, this artwork exudes warmth and offers a captivating glimpse into the lives of Safed's inhabitants of yore. It also evokes a profound sense of spirituality and mystery, characteristic of this historic city.
