Description
View of Wilfred Thesiger's travelling party trekking through Al Batin sands during their journey across the Empty Quarter (Rub' al Khali) from Al Dhafra sands to Liwa oasis. In the foreground a large clump of abal (calligonum comosum) grows in the sand. Members of Wilfred Thesiger's travelling party, tribesmen of the Bayt Imani lineage of Rashid Bedouin, ride across dune sands towards a salt flat (sabkha) in the far distance. Baggage camels follow behind the men's mounts on leads. In the far distance beyond the salt flat is a wind-rippled dune with a sheer face.

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.
