Description

Portrait of a member of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan's hunting party riding a camel in Al Khatam sands near Al Ain. An Arab man with a thick dark beard sits on a pale coloured camel. The man wears a patterned ghutra (headscarf) and a thobe (long shirt), and carries a camel stick and a rifle. The camel stands facing forward, its head turned to the left. In the distance beyond scattered vegetation grows across a vast flat plain of sand. 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.
