Description
Close up profile portrait of a thoroughbred Omani camel belonging to Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, taken in the Al Khatam sands near Al Ain. The head and neck of a thoroughbred Omani face towards the left in a profile pose. The camel's mouth is closed and it has a thick patch of hair along the bottom of its throat. This image was taken between December 20, 1948, and January 27, 1949, during which time Wilfred Thesiger stayed with Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan in Al Ain and joined him on a number of hunting excursions.

Due to the nature of these images, prints will reproduce any signs of age, wear or damage that occurred before they were archived by the Pitt Rivers Museum.
