Description
View of a field, houses and a fort in the Al Ain / Buraimi oasis. Large leafed shrubs grow on a sandy, grass-covered field in the foreground. An 'arish (palm frond) house, with an attached palm fenced enclosure, sits in the far left background. In the central background an adobe house sits beside a large fort with high walls and square towers. In the far background tall trees and date palms grow in the distance beyond. 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.
