Staten Island, New York, 25 Feb, 2025 - ArtLevin is pleased to announce a new series of paintings devoted to the Temple in Jerusalem, known by the Hebrew terms “Beis Hamikdash” and “בית המקדש.” These artworks aim to honor a monumental place in Jewish life while also offering a thoughtful perspective for modern-day viewers. With a longstanding focus on Judaica, our team has created a range of pieces that look at the Temple's historical roots and spiritual resonance.
About Art Levin
ArtLevin has spent years crafting paintings that pay homage to Jewish themes, from scriptural narratives to significant locations in Israel. Our work frequently highlights moments and ideas that hold meaning for those connected to Jewish heritage. This latest initiative centers on the Beis Hamikdash, recognized by many as a spiritual landmark in Jewish history. Although the physical structure no longer exists, it continues to guide discussions on worship and tradition. We believe this new selection of art will appeal to individuals who wish to reflect on a deeper connection to faith or who simply appreciate the timeless importance of the Temple in Jewish memory.
The project also features a parallel set of works under the Hebrew title “בית המקדש ציורים,” reflecting the same subject matter through a slightly different linguistic lens. By providing a variety of styles and artistic moods, our goal is to create a sense of reflection and admiration in those who see these pieces. Through each painting, we invite viewers to consider how this ancient site still holds a place in modern cultural identity.
About the New Art Levin's Collection
This collection brings together paintings in multiple sizes, ensuring there is an option for varied display settings—whether one prefers a smaller canvas for personal study or a more expansive piece for a community center. Some compositions emphasize architectural elements by highlighting columns, walkways, and altars, while others lean toward symbolic references drawn from religious texts. Rather than focusing strictly on reconstructing every historical detail, these works consider the meaning the Temple carries for people today.
A significant influence behind these paintings comes from historical accounts and religious writings that describe the Temple's role in spiritual life. Many of our artists also drew motivation from personal reflections on how Jewish practice has been shaped by the Temple's legacy. In reflecting on these sources, each piece aims to form a bridge between the ancient past and the present day, allowing viewers to sense a link to the traditions that shaped generations long ago.
In the middle of this new lineup, we feature a curated page for Beis Hamikdash designs, where English-speaking visitors can easily find paintings that highlight this sacred structure. Every selection in that section is crafted with an eye toward balancing historical inspiration with a modern aesthetic.
Artistic Techniques & Materials
Our roster of artists has employed various methods to bring this subject to life. Some have chosen oil on canvas for its depth of color and long-lasting qualities, while others have opted for watercolor to create a more gentle effect. The decision of medium often depends on the emotional tone each artist aims to convey, whether that involves carefully drawn lines or layers of color to evoke reverence.
In some of the larger pieces, viewers may spot subtle references to artifacts mentioned in ancient texts, such as items used for Temple service. Others rely more on atmospheric choices—soft light, muted backgrounds, or intricate detailing—to inspire personal reflection. These approaches are meant to resonate across different tastes, ensuring that the Temple's importance remains the central focus.
Meanwhile, the Hebrew-language portal for בית המקדש ציורים showcases similar works, presented entirely in Hebrew. This parallel page caters to those who prefer browsing in the Hebrew language or who are more accustomed to its phrases and cultural nuances. Despite different language settings, both sections share the same dedication to high-quality artistry and a deep respect for the Temple's role in Jewish tradition.
How to View & Acquire
Those interested in seeing our full range of Temple-inspired works can visit the ArtLevin website. Each piece is accompanied by clear images and relevant background details. Prospective buyers may select original paintings, when available, or opt for prints in various dimensions. Prints are produced using museum-grade materials, making them well-suited for display in homes, offices, or communal halls.
We also welcome inquiries about customizing certain pieces to fit unique preferences.

Any questions regarding payment, shipping, or additional information can be directed to our helpful staff.
Art often has the power to evoke a strong sense of connection, particularly when the subject touches on themes of heritage and devotion. By highlighting the Temple's significance, this collection creates a new way to reflect on a cornerstone of Jewish identity. Whether you're adding to an existing Judaica collection or looking for a single statement piece, these works can bring a thoughtful element of history into everyday environments.
Each painting stands as a testament to the enduring fascination with the Temple, illustrating how its influence continues to shape conversations about faith and ancestry. We invite everyone—from seasoned collectors to those taking a first step into Judaica art—to examine these portrayals and see how they speak to each viewer's personal perspective. For details on individual works or general guidance, our team is readily available to assist.
