In 1882, Eduard Glaser (1855-1908) was requested by Count Logothetti to investigate the general conditions for the procurement of horses in the Hedjaz and in Yemen respectively. For this purpose he prepared a photo report with short descriptions of various horses, which he submitted to Count Logothetti in the course of 1883.
