The building exterior behind them adds depth to the composition while emphasizing the historical context of this biblical event. Dore's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork. From the carefully engraved text on Western script to incidental people scattered throughout the scene, each element contributes to its overall authenticity. A palm tree sways gently in the background, symbolizing hope and spiritual growth amidst adversity.
