Description Watercolor 15x11;The church, located at Armenian Quarter of Jerusalems Old City, is dedicated to two martyred saints of that name-St James the Great, one of the first apostles to follow Jesus, and St James the Less, believed to be a close relative of Jesus, who became the first bishop of Jerusalem.Armenians have the long presence in Jerusalem in the first century before Christ. After Armenia became Christian in 301, pilgrims began coming in large numbers.By the 7th century, there were 70 Armenian monasteries in Palestine. For several hundred years the Armenian patriarch was considered to be the most senior Christian dignitary in the Holy Land.The Armenian Quarter began taking shape in the south-west of Jerusalem before 1100. After expansion of the Jewish Quarter in 1968, it now occupies about one-sixth of the Old City.
