Description

Two sketches on the same page, a portrait of an Egyptian merchant wearing glasses and a fez hat. There are subtle differences between the two side profiles which may indicate that they depict different men and the study of a donkey fully harnessed. There were four mules that accompanied the Historical mission, and there was one particularly stubborn mule which carried Lambert's equipment.
