Crafted through wood engraving by skilled French artists, this piece perfectly captures the essence of mid-19th century Egyptian architecture. The composition is strikingly beautiful as it juxtaposes man-made structures against the raw natural beauty of its surroundings.

The limestone building itself stands as a testament to ancient craftsmanship and architectural prowess. Its intricate details are highlighted by sunlight streaming through clouds above, casting shadows that add depth and dimension to this historical scene.
