The illustration is part of a larger body of work that documents the stories and legends of Cambodia, as observed and recorded by Pavie, who was one of the first Europeans to extensively explore the region and interact with its people. His work was instrumental in bringing the narratives of Southeast Asia to a wider audience, and the illustrations accompanying his collection play a crucial role in visualizing the tales for those unfamiliar with the local traditions.

The illustration not only serves as a visual accompaniment to the legend but also provides insight into the artistic styles and maritime practices of the period in Cambodia.

The legend of 'Vorvong and Saurivong' itself is a complex tale of adventure, heroism, and the interplay of divine and human realms, and it occupies an important place in the canon of Cambodian oral literature. The illustration by the anonymous artist is a valuable historical artifact that offers a window into the visual culture of the time and the ways in which such epics were brought to life through art.

As a piece of cultural and historical significance, "The Fleet Advance at Full Speed Towards Canthop Borey" is preserved in collections that focus on Southeast Asian art and history.
