Portrait of a man mounted ... IraqPortrait of a man mounted on a camel near Al Muwaiji Fort in Al Ain. An Arab man sits astride his camel, saddled with a few blankets, in a vast rocky plain. The camel stands in profile, facing towards the left, while the rider looks back over his shoulder into the foreground. In the distance behind a few small bushes grow on the vast plain, which stretches uninterrupted into the far horizon. This image was taken between December 20, 1948, and January

In the distance tall builds sit along the foot of a high rock escarpment
