Photograph consisting of two images. The upper one shows a decorative element from a tomb's wall, and the lower one displays the transportation of material from the Valley of the Queens, using Decauville railways. The mission’s camp can be viewed in the background. The number of tents could indicate that this photo comes from the 1906 excavation campaign. Schiaparelli excavations.
