His areas of special interest were the Middle Ages and photography. Camille Enlart died before the second volume of this work was published. This work is a comprehensive analysis of the cultural heritage of the Crusades, starting in Cyprus and the Holy Land, the expansion of French art during the Middle Ages and its influence on religious art in the East. The images of this elaborately illustrated work show floor plans and architectural details of cathedrals and ruins. # Cobhan-Jeffery, p. 18.
