The Mohammed Image Archive

An archive of every known image, historical and contemporary, of Mohammed has been assembled here.

The image below is from the North Frieze of the Supreme Court building in Washington, DC, which features a bas-relief sculpture of Mohammed, among several other historical law-givers. He is in the center of this image holding a curved scimitar; on his left is Charlemagne, and on his right is Byzantine Emperor Justinian.
