Bartlett's views demonstrate both the affinities and the contrasts between western Europe and the Middle East. This English artist born in London in 1809 admired and recorded every single style of monument in the region: not only Pharaonic classical Christian and Crusader remains but also Islamic masterpieces such as the tomb of Sultan Kaitbey in Cairo which for Bartlett represented the 'unique invention of Mohammedan art in its highest enrichment'. <br/> <br/> Editor: Ray Publishing and Science paperback‎
