Mouth of the Wady el Arish, The Wady el Arish rises in the southern Sinai mountains and runs into the Mediterranean at the town of El Arish. It contains water briefly during the heavy rain season in the highlands, when it usually floods. Like many other Wady beds it is used as a main route during the dry periods. Lambert's work is an accurate study of palm trees, conveying the flickering heat of the sky, details of the encampment, and the activities of the soldiers.
