Rottiers left Europe in 1808 for Russia where he served with the Georgian army. In 1818 he resigned and returned to Belgium. This work is an account of part of his route home. through the Mediterranean, with the purpose of buying antiquities for the King. The resulting art collection, named after the author Rottiers Collection, became an integral part of the collection of the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden.
