Un ejemplo sobresaliente de las escenas norteafricanas de Churchill, en las que capta hábilmente el paisaje y la luz de los que su mentor artístico, John Lavery, le había hablado a mediados de los años treinta. Otro mentor artístico, Walter Sickert, enseñó a Churchill a proyectar imágenes fotográficas directamente sobre un lienzo como ayuda para pintar, técnica que utilizó con provecho en este caso. Los Archivos del Estudio de Chartwell incluyen cinco fotografías, una del camello y otras cuatro, que Churchill utilizó como ayuda.

Con las ayudas visuales, Churchill podía centrarse en los colores vibrantes, el bronceado de la arena y los edificios contrastando con el cielo azul brillante, salpicaduras de verde que añadían energía al cuadro. Otra escena de Marrakech, "Torre de la Mezquita Koutoubia", batió un récord en una subasta de Churchill cuando se vendió en 2021 por 11 millones de dólares.
