Summary Note

Some copies have bound in the paper cover of this cuaderno, of which the title reads, 'Monumentos Arquitectónicos De España. Publicados de Rl. Orden y por disposicion del Ministerio de Fomento. Cuaderno No.'

The titles are in Spanish; the text is in Spanish and French in parallel.

The work describes Christian buildings of Córdoba before its occupation by Arabs.

The plates show architectural fragments probably from churches and a mosaic of the four seasons from the Casa De Los S.S. Luque. In-text illustrations consist of a title-page vignette, headpiece (showing a carved altar-front) and two decorated initials.

Plate [7] (showing the mosaic) and the two decorated initials are printed in color.
