Dubai A City Portrait – Patrick Lichfield

Dubai A City Portrait

Author: Patrick Lichfield

The late Earl of Lichfield was a frequent visitor to Dubai, a destination he admired and enjoyed and one that certainly provided a plethora of fascinating subjects for his cameras. Dubai A City Portrait is the result of these visits; it’s a rich portrait of one of the most dynamic and fastest growing cities the world has ever seen. Patrick Lichfield, however, did not for one moment ignore the heritage and culture that is the foundation of the city, nor the sheer fun it offers its visitors. He captured stunning images of the people, not only proud nationals, but also the many people who came from near and far to work within its vibrant community.

The book is a true portrait of a cosmopolitan city, an emirate and its people. hr Although Dubai is one of the world’s fastest growing and most dynamic cities, Patrick Lichfield didn’t for one moment ignore the heritage and culture that is the foundation of the city, nor the sheer fun it offers its visitors.
