View of two members of ... George Dixon AkedView of two members of Wilfred Thesiger's party at a well in the region west of the Hamrat ad Duru. Two of Wilfred Thesiger's Bedouin travelling companions fill water skins at a well. Each of the men wears a thobe (shirt) topped with a cartridge belt and a headscarf. Behind them, on the right, a large tree grows over the well. Due to the nature of these images, prints will reproduce any signs of age, wear or damage that occurred before they were
