Description
Seated portrait of a tribesman of the Rashid Bedouin at Muhammad's encampment near Bir al Tawil in the Ramlat ar Rabbad. Wilfred Thesiger and his men stayed with Muhammad, a sheikh of the Rashid Bedouin, and his sons in the Ramlat ar Rabbad for a few days during their first crossing of the Empty Quarter (Rub' al Khali) in December 1946. The man, one of Muhammad's sons, kneels in the sand next to a cooking fire. He is making a gesturing motion with his left hand, which he is holding in front of his chest.

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.
