The work serves not only as an artistic representation but also as an ethnographic record, reflecting the customs, clothing, and daily activities of the people of the Nile Valley in the mid-19th century.

Published by Lemercier, a leading lithography company in Paris, the illustration benefits from the high-quality printing techniques of the time, which allowed for the precise reproduction of Prisse d'Avennes' drawings. Eugène Le Roux's engraving skills further enhanced the visual impact of the illustration, ensuring that the fine details of the original artwork were preserved.
