DESCRIPTION
This image shows Sheikh Maktoum Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, at the age of 15, at his first public speech marking the accession of his father, Sheikh Rashid (far right), as the Ruler of Dubai, following the death of Sheikh Saeed bin Maktoum Al Maktoum. Foreign diplomats also attended this occasion. Donald Hawley (second man on the left) was the British Political Agent in Dubai. Sir Bernard Burrows (second man on the right) was the British Political Resident in Bahrain. The speech took place in Customs House, immediately following the accession ceremony. This image was one of the first taken by royal photographer Noor Ali Rashid of Dubai’s royal family.
This event marked Sheikh Maktoum’s first official public appearance, which essentially confirmed his role as his father’s heir apparent, becoming the Crown Prince of Dubai. Sheikh Rashid began introducing his eldest son into every aspect of political life in Dubai, and later on, the United Arab Emirates. This image marks a time when the Trucial States were considerate a British Protectorate. Thus, the British diplomatic presence in this occasion, consolidated the rule of Sheikh Rashid, and gave the young Sheikh Maktoum a sense of legitimacy. Additionally, to the Dubai’s population, this image was a signal of continuity and the advancement of the Maktoum dynasty, of which Sheikh Maktoum was the ninth Ruler.

DESCRIPTION
This image documents the first official cabinet meeting of the newly formed United Arab Emirates. Although not a member of the cabinet, the President, Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan opens the first meeting, before the country’s first Prime Minister, Sheikh Maktoum Bin Rashid Al Maktoum takes over the chair. Seated at the main table (in clockwise order are): Sheikh Abdulaziz Bin Rashid Al Nuami, Minister of Labour and Social Affairs; Dr Sheikh Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qassimi, Minister of Education; Sheikh Hamad bin Mohammed Al Sharqi, Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries; Sheikh Mohammed bin Sultan Al Qassimi, Minister of Public Works; Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Minister of Defence; Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Minister of Finance and Industry; Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Prime Minister; Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, President; Sheikh Mubarak bin Mohammed Al Nahyan, Minister of Interior; Ahmed bin Khalifa Al Suwaidi, Minister of Foreign Affairs; Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed al Mualla, Minister of Health; Ahmed bin Hamed Al Hamed, Minister of Information; and Otaiba bin Abdullah Al Otaiba. This image was taken by royal photographer Noor Ali Rashid.
This image is especially significant in that it puts forth government body that essentially makes the United Arab Emirates function as one country. The President opens the meeting, but then leaves it to Sheikh Maktoum. Many of the ministers are the respective Crown Princes of the Emirate they represent, and are the residing Rulers of the country we see today. Additionally, the ministries formed during the conception of the Emirates highlight what was essential for the country’s development. Most notably, the ministry of petroleum was not yet formed, but is considered to be one of the most crucial elements of this nation’s development. This image also represents the power sharing balance between Abu Dhabi, Dubai and the Northern Emirates, as all parties needed to have a say in order for national affairs to commence smoothly. This power sharing balance can still be seen today with members of the Emirati royal families still having a prominent role in the cabinet.
Part Two: Two Photographs in Dialogue
The unification of the United Arab Emirates is the result of centuries of political, economic and social alliances and conflicts among the tribes the Gulf. Dynasties were claiming royal status or fighting to gain independence from it. The years prior to the historic 1971 unification saw an unprecedented level of inter-tribal communication and diplomacy. One figure at the heart of this movement was Sheikh Maktoum Bin Rashid Al Maktoum. On his paternal side, he was the considered the future of a well-established dynasty. His maternal patronage is also significant, as his mother was Sheikha Latifa Bint Hamdan Al Nahyan. Combining two of the Trucial States’ most powerful and influential royal families, Sheikh Maktoum was a vital figure in both creation and development of the modern United Arab Emirates.
The first image (top left) exhibits the support of British foreign powers that oversaw the affairs of the Trucial states. Moreover, it shows the Sheikh Rashid, known as ‘The Father’ of modern Dubai, essentially proclaiming his son to be his successor. The second image (bottom left), is an image that carries incredible weight, and is the foundation of the seamless balance of power between the emirates of Abu Dhabi and Dubai. This image shows the nation’s founder, Sheikh Zayed giving his approval and show of support to the cabinet, and its leader, Sheikh Maktoum entrusting him to initiate and reside over affairs of state. Both of these images portray the approval and trust of Sheikh Zayed and Sheikh Rashid being given to Sheikh Maktoum. This was a process initiated at young age were Sheikh Maktoum was trained to the skills and responsibilities that he would one day inherit. Since that show of trust was given, he did not divert from the ambitious vision that he helped cultivate. Sheikh Maktoum was known for his keen sense of diplomacy, and his compassionate and fair handling of federal and communal issues.
Furthermore, both images intended to be wide-spread among the citizens of the country. The first was mostly directed towards the citizens of Dubai. However, the second image was directed towards the entire Emirati population, as well as neighboring Gulf states and beyond. This is evident in the second image, as there are a large number of reporters present during this official meeting. Both images were taken by royal photographer Noor Ali Rashid, and while they are part of the official National Archives, they are featured in many publications.
