By Prisse d’Avennes
Introduction by George Scanlon
Notes by Yasmeen Siddiqui
L’art arabe d’apres les monuments du Kaire is Prisse d’Avennes’ opus on the Arab art and architecture of medieval Cairo. “Emile Prisse d’Avennes was the contingent heir of this legacy (the Description d’Egypte); indeed he may be deemed its pinnacle in that color reproduction often enhanced his purely linear talents.” —George T. Scanlon.
