Before and After Photos of Luxor Temple

Spotted on Facebook, a photo of Luxor temple from the 1890's and a similar view today. At first I thought the door in the first photo was the door to the mosque but further study showed in was in the Tutankhamen colonnade between the first court and the peristyle court. The mosque is behind the pylon in the first court. I guess back then all of the temple must have been used as supports for buildings.
