content: Figure study of a camel and a seated figure. At center, the yoked and saddled camel is shown in profile, with its brown shadow stretching beneath it to the left. At right, a seated male figure--possibly one of Church's Bedouin guides--wears a striped robed and headdress while sitting cross-legged and glaring back at the viewer.
