Arabic Spain : sidelights on her history and art
A 1912 London study by Bernhard and Ellen Mary Whishaw arguing the Byzantine and Coptic roots of the architecture called Moorish in Spain, written for antiquarians and art historians. The halftone plates show whitewashed courtyards, horseshoe and pointed arches, slender columns with carved capitals, brick apses and Seville's Alcázar walls, useful as reference for arch profiles and sunlit masonry texture.
