Descripción
Sumario:Completed in 1932, this work by Jean Sauvaget provides an inventory of Damascene heritage. While little remains of the ancient city (Bâb Charqi, Bâb Saghîr, temple of Jupiter, Roman aqueduct and chapel of Saint Ananias), the remains of the Muslim and medieval period are much more numerous (more than one hundred elements listed for about forty illustrations).A very long chapter is devoted to the Umayyad Mosque. But the architectural riches do not stop there, since it is also worth mentioning the citadel, the gates, the mausoleums, the madrasas, the caravanserais and other hammams, which help to make the Syrian capital an exceptional city.
