I was walking downtown, camera bag over my shoulder. I had just had my first (and only) photography lesson and saw something this analagous.
This is the new mosque in Prijedor and the shadow you see is the old mosque. This is my own Photoshop work.
La mosquée Koutoubia, ou mosquée des libraires, fut débutée sous la dynastie berbère des Almoravides en 1120, mais fut profondément remaniée à partir de 1162 sous l'émir Almohade Abu Yusuf Yaqub al-Mansur, et devint l'un des édifices les plus caractéristiques de ce style. Son nom vient du fait qu'elle se situait dans le souk des marchands de manuscrits.
La mosquée des libraires s'organise sur un plan en T. Cette tradition existe depuis la construction de la mosquée de Kairouan au ixe siècle, et se retrouve également en Espagne. Il s'agit en fait d'un plan arabe hypostyle, c’est-à-dire comportant une grande cour entourée d'un portique et une salle de prière à colonnes. Les nefs sont perpendiculaires au mur de qibla, celle du centre étant plus large ; et la travée qui longe le mur qibli est également magnifiée, ce qui forme un T, d'où le nom. Le mihrab est traité comme une niche très profonde, et le minaret, haut de 69 m, est de section carrée, selon la tradition de l'occident musulman.
Ses 17 nefs, soutenues par de nombreux piliers blancs, abritent l'une des plus vastes salles de prière de l'Occident musulman (90 x 60 m) pouvant accueillir jusqu'à vingt mille fidèles. Le bâtiment a été restauré dans l'esprit du monument original en 1990, sous l'autorité du ministère de la Culture marocain.

The Muhammad Ali lithographs are all 18 by 24 inches except for Let My People Go which is 13.5 by 10.5 inches, and were published in 1979 in editions of 500. Three have religious imagery: Under the Sun, which shows a jet plane; Guiding Light, showing an image of a lighthouse; and the eponymous Mosque II. The fourth is a cartoonish scene of the boxing ring, titled Sting Like a Bee and the fifth is a drawing of Africa titled Let My People Go.
The Museum of UnCut Funk is proud to have Sting Like a Bee in it's collection.
The Sultan Ahmed Mosque, Blue Mosque or, in Turkish, Sultanahmet Camii is one of the great masterpieces of Islamic architecture.
Built between 1609 and 1616, the architect was given a mandate to spare no expense in creating the most magnificent and beautiful place of Islamic worship in the world. The mosque was deliberately sited to face Hagia Sophia, to demonstrate that Ottoman and Islamic architects and builders could rival anything their Christian predecessors had created. The two buildings together comprise a unique historical and architectural precinct.
