A detail of the intricate carved designs at Ibn Tulun, probably from the top of one of the pilasters edging the arches. Whether by technical necessity or by intention, the bright detail emerging from the surrounding darkness enhances the jewel-like impression of the small daguerreotype plate. This is quite possibly the detail shown in the bottom centre of the plate illustrated on p.49.
