This is a watercolor sketch created by famous Scottish painter David Roberts in 1838, depicting the desert scenery along the Nile in Siout (now Asyut), Egypt. The ancient Islamic minaret, camel caravans, travelers in traditional costumes, distant mosque ruins, dunes and palm trees present the unique local culture of 19th century Egypt, full of distant and profound historical atmosphere.
