Landscape of the ruined fort ... John K. Hillers

Landscape of the ruined fort ... John K. HillersLandscape of the ruined fort at Sanaw well. In the foreground a ruined fort sits in the left distance on a vast barren plain. In the right distance Bedouin men in Wilfred Thesiger's travelling party walk past the ruin. In the far distance a group of camels stands beyond. 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.
