It is evident that this engraving was created for The Illustrated London News in October 1860, providing readers with a visual feast of South African topography. The scene unfolds with precision and detail, depicting various elements that make up the coastal landscape. Government House stands proudly amidst the backdrop of Simons Bay, while HMS Euryalus commands attention on the sea's horizon.
