The artist, Jean Adolphe Beauce, beautifully portrays this pivotal event that showcases the loyalty and dedication of these men towards their ruler. Muhammad Ali, who later became known as Muhammad Ali Pasha, was an army officer turned Ottoman Viceroy of Egypt from 1805 until his death in 1849.

It serves as a reminder that these brave individuals were willing to sacrifice everything for their nation under Mehmet Ali's rule. This piece transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate not only the artistry but also the historical significance it represents. It stands as a testament to human loyalty and devotion amidst turbulent times within the Ottoman Empire.
