Charles Clifford’s photographs freeze the details of Spanish architecture in the 1850s and 60s. In Cathedral Moorish Door (or door of Pardon), Seville (1862) he frames the sunlit arches and intricate tilework, while The Alhambra. Fountain and the pavilion of the Court of the Lions (1862) captures the Court of the Lions’ carved columns and water basins. Tap the photograph of Salamanca’s Monuments in the Cathedral (1853) to see how Clifford lit the stone carvings late in the day.
