"Camels Resting in the Sherkiyeh, Land of Goshen" is a notable 19th-century illustration by the French Egyptologist and artist Émile Prisse d'Avennes. This work is part of a larger collection featured in "The Valley of the Nile," which showcases a series of illustrations capturing the essence and landscapes of Egypt. Engraved by Lehnert and published by Lemercier in 1848, the illustration is a testament to Prisse d'Avennes' dedication to documenting the historical and cultural aspects of Egypt during his extensive travels in the region.

The illustration depicts a serene scene in the Sherkiyeh, a part of the historical Land of Goshen, which is often associated with the biblical narrative of the Israelites in Egypt. It shows a group of camels at rest, which not only reflects the daily life and environment of the area but also serves as a symbol of the Middle Eastern culture and its reliance on these animals for transportation and trade. The attention to detail in the artwork, from the camels' relaxed postures to the surrounding landscape, highlights Prisse d'Avennes' skill as an artist and his commitment to ethnographic accuracy.

Prisse d'Avennes' work is significant for its contribution to Orientalist art, a genre that was popular in the 19th century among European artists and intellectuals fascinated by the perceived exoticism of the East. "Camels Resting in the Sherkiyeh, Land of Goshen" is not only an artistic achievement but also an important historical record, offering insight into the life and geography of Egypt during a time of great interest and exploration by the Western world. The illustration remains a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Egyptian history and 19th-century art.
