View of Wilfred Thesiger's travelling ... Type:stretched canvasView of Wilfred Thesiger's travelling party camping beneath a tree in the Ramlat al Ghirbaniyat (Ghirbaniyat Sands). In the distance a man stands in the sand beneath a ghaf [Prosopis cineraria] tree at the party's camp. In the distance a few trees grow amongst rolling dunes. 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.
