Note:	Jules Gailhabaud: The French architectural historian, Jules Gailhabaud, published his magnum opus, Histoire de Architecture Ancienne et Moderne in Paris in 1850. The English translation given is (History of Ancient and Modern Architecture). This lengthy work examined major architectural structures from the earliest discovered ruins to the modern era. Accompanying the text were one hundred engraved plates which meticulously detailed the structure and ornamentation of every building. Naturally, the scope was wide reaching: starting with ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Sumeria, India, China, Greece and Rome and ending with medieval and post medieval constructions. Artists commissioned for the work included Vouchet, Prisse, Jourdan and Leveil, while the leading engravers were Bury, Outhwaile, Lemaitre and Pfnor.
	Few nineteenth century architectural engravings are as highly esteemed as those from the Histoire de Architecture Ancienne et Moderne. The plates dealing with ancient architecture are of particular importance. In the space of almost one hundred and fifty years since these original engravings were made, the sites they depict have often suffered further deterioration and vandalism. These engravings are thus both historically and artistically of great value.
	Mosque of Cordova, Spain, with its wealth of arches, represents one of the most appealing engravings in the series.
