View of member of Wilfred ... Portraits of notable peopleView of member of Wilfred Thesiger's travelling party on a dune in near Umm az Zumul. In the central distance one of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin companions (likely Salim bin Kabina, a tribesman of the Bayt Imani lineage of Rashid Bedouin) stands on the crest of a dune. He balances a rifle in a tasselled case on one shoulder, and holds a camel stick. Behind him the dune, dotted with small tufts of vegetation, rises to a peak in the far right distance.
