Description

Seated portrait of a curly haired boy of the Mahamid lineage of Duru Bedouin, taken in the region west of the Hamrat ad Duru. The boy is the son of Huaishil, a man who was one of Wilfred Thesiger's travelling companions and a sheikh of the Duru. The boy kneels on the ground, facing forward. He is wearing a plain headscarf and a dark coloured thobe (shirt) topped with a khanjar (dagger).
