Portrait of an Arab man ... Images of Sheikh ZayedPortrait of an Arab man, a retainer in Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan's hunting party, standing with camels in Al Khatam sands near Al Ain. An Arab falconer in a thobe (long shirt) and ghutra (headscarf) stands in the foreground, holding the neck rope of one of four saddled camels which stand in a line behind him.
