Excerpts from the accompanying text, written by Pierre-Gustave Joly, published in Excursions daguerriennes (this text is in the public domain, like the image):
"[...] This plate shows only a small part of the Muslim cemetery of Damas. The mosque in the center is the tomb of a prince; the grilled cages surround and protect the graves of the rich; the numerous tumular stones mark the graves of the poor, and are often walked on by the passers-by. [...] In the background, the Anti-Lebanon Mountains can be seen [...] "

Extraits du texte d'accompagnement publié dans Excursions daguerriennes, rédigé par Pierre-Gustave Joly (ce texte est dans le domaine public, comme l'image) :

La mosquée qui domine au centre est le tombeau d'un prince ; ces cages grillées entourent et protègent les tombes des riches ; ces nombreuses pierres tumulaires marquent la dernière demeure des pauvres, et sont souvent foulées sous les pieds des passants. [...] Dans le lointain on aperçoit l'Anti-Liban [...] »
