#13 is gorgeous and so full of information and subtle hints about all of the various religious, political, and social forces existent in Judea at that time.
Who is the painter?

The painter is Vasily Polenov, a Russian who also traveled to Palestine and Syria to sketch faces, buildings and landscapes. This painting was purchased by Alexander III and kept in the Hermitage until it was moved to the Russian Museum in late 1800 (notes from Russia Beyond).

I, too, am fascinated by it. When I know the painter, I always attribute it. I recall searching for it fruitlessly a month ago when I prepared this thread, but at your inquiry I tried again, using Google Image Search, which returned this:
The URL doesn't refer to an image, or the image is not publicly accessible.But then I tried the Image Sources, and the Detail's source lists it as:
Vasily Polenov
