Reseña del editor:
The Emirates by the First Photographers covers the period between 1900 and 1962, which saw the Emirates' emergence from independent shaikhdoms to unification as the United Arab Emirates and the arrival of oil wealth. It is an extraordinary visual record of a crucial time before the old way of life was swept away. It draws on all the known photographic collections from the time of the first traveller-photographers.
Photographers represented include Vaughan and A. T. Wilson in the 1920s, Hay in the 1930s, and Thesiger and Codrai in the 1940s and 1950s. Sources include such institutions as the Royal Geographical Society, the Middle East Centre at St. Antony's College, Oxford, and the National Maritime Museum. Company archives include the British Airways Archive, the BP Archive at Warwick University and those of other oil companies.
The chief aim is to record the immemorial way of life, now all but entirely vanished. These remarkable pictures are accompanied by a text setting them in their historical context.
