View of a few people ... ArabiaView of a few people walking through a public square in the city of Tarim. Tall multi storey adobe buildings with small windows sit on all sides of the square. The building on the left has a grand arched entranceway. In the background a large rock escarpment rises behind the buildings. 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.
