I've found this page with a photo using google:
http://www.onwar.com/chrono/1941/apr41/01apr41.htm

Instead this one is not on google ;):

PS By the way, his name was Rashid 'Ali al-Gaylani (also spelled Gailani or Kaylani).

Well, except various references to him in not a few history books (first of all the great bio of Mussolini by De Felice), I don't know much more that what is commonly written on internet. About his fate, it was not bad, given that died in Lebanon in 1965: far better than most of the Axis leaders of WW2 (except Phibul Songkhram, of course ;)).

I have googled a interesting Photo of Galiani with Hitler and Ribbentropp, and a good Biography by encyclopedia.
