The National Museum of Oman’s extensive photography collection holds some of the most important photographs depicting the history, culture, and creative elements of the people of the Sultanate of Oman. This valuable collection holds some of the leading archival photographic documentations by renowned Omani photographers, as well as by individuals of various backgrounds, from scientists, medical professionals, and foreign officials who have lived in Oman.
