View of Wilfred Thesiger's party ... Type:stretched canvasView of Wilfred Thesiger's party trekking across dunes in Al Humrah sands during their journey to Umm az Zumul. Four of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions trek in a line across a wind rippled dune, heading from the left to the right. The two men at the front lead their camels on foot, while the man behind them rides. In the distance beyond a vast sabkha (salt flat) lies beyond rolling dunes.
