A captured German officer in a field cap
On the right an officer in a long-peaked field cap of the German pattern, a light scarf and a belted coat with shoulder straps stands in profile and looks ahead; in the left half a figure moves quickly past, too blurred to recognise, before a pale background of sand. The source describes General Ritter von Thoma, commander of the Afrika Korps, being taken prisoner and greeted by Montgomery; whether he is the man shown cannot be established from the image. Wilhelm Ritter von Thoma was captured on 4 November 1942.
