The engraving "Mosquée d'Ahmed-Ibn-Toulon" is a notable work by Philippe Benoist (1813-1905), created in 1877, under the commission or influence of the French Egyptologist and architect Emile Prisse d'Avennes. This piece is part of a larger body of work aimed at documenting and celebrating the architectural heritage of Egypt, with a particular focus on Islamic monuments. The Mosque of Ahmad Ibn Tulun, located in Cairo, Egypt, is one of the oldest and most significant mosques in the city, renowned for its unique architectural features, including its vast courtyard and distinctive minaret.

Philippe Benoist, known for his detailed and precise engravings, captured the essence and grandeur of the mosque, highlighting its architectural and historical significance. The work was produced during a time when there was a growing interest in Orientalism and the study of Middle Eastern cultures in Europe. Emile Prisse d'Avennes, an esteemed Egyptologist, played a crucial role in documenting Egyptian art and architecture, and his collaboration with Benoist on this project underscores the scholarly and artistic efforts to preserve and share knowledge about Egypt's rich cultural heritage.

The engraving not only serves as a visual record of the mosque as it stood in the late 19th century but also reflects the broader European fascination with the Orient, which influenced various aspects of Western art, literature, and scholarship during this period. "Mosquée d'Ahmed-Ibn-Toulon" by Philippe Benoist, through the lens of Emile Prisse d'Avennes' expertise, thus stands as a significant contribution to the documentation and appreciation of Islamic architecture, offering insights into the historical and cultural context of Egypt in the 19th century.
