Aerial view of an obelisk being transported. The drawing is in landscape format. It is organized within a frame drawn in ink and graphite. A scale appears on the drawing.
The scene takes place on an ascending ramp. The obelisk is placed on a wooden towing sledge. Thousands of men, placed in single file in four rows almost 200 m long, haul it up using ropes. A ladder shows the distances involved.
