Portrait of Suhail bin Al ... Images of Wilfred ThesigerPortrait of Suhail bin Al Kuwait, a young tribesman of the Bayt Gidad lineage of Bayt Kathir Bedouin, sitting in Jabal Qara. 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.
A high watchtower rises above the city wall
He holds a skull drum and thigh bone trumpet in his hands
In the distance beyond trees and bushes grow in the far background
In the far background houses sit along the edge of the creek
In the foreground dry shrubs and grasses grow in sandy soil
Behind the new palms a more established grove of date palms grows on the far edge of the salt flat (sabkha)
The dune rises to a high crest on the right
A man sits in the central foreground beside a pile of camel blankets
which is framed by a number of large multi-story buildings with small wooden balconies
in Al Humrah sands during the party's journey to Umm az Zumul
