The Autumn Sunset, c1908, (1909). Artist: George Marston
The Autumn Sunset, c1908, (1909). Anglo-Irish explorer Ernest Shackleton (1874-1922) made three expeditions to the Antarctic. During the second expedition, 1907-1909, he and three companions established a new record, Farthest South latitude at 88° S, only 97 geographical miles (112 statute miles, or 180 km) from the South Pole, the largest advance to the pole in exploration history. Members of his team also climbed Mount Erebus, the most active volcano in the Antarctic. Shackleton was knighted by King Edward VII for these achievements. He died during his third and last oceanographic and sub-antarctic expedition, aged 47. Illustration after an original painting by George Marston (1882-1940) the expedition artist, from The Heart of the Antarctic, Vol. I, by E. H. Shackleton, C.V.O. [William Heinemann, London, 1909]

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Autumn Sunset, c1908, (1909) captures the breathtaking beauty of an Antarctic sunset during Ernest Shackleton's second expedition to the region. This stunning print by artist George Marston showcases the vibrant colors of autumn against a backdrop of icy landscapes and towering icebergs. Ernest Shackleton, renowned Anglo-Irish explorer, led his team to achieve a remarkable feat during this expedition - reaching the Farthest South latitude at 88° S. Their journey fell just 97 geographical miles short of the elusive South Pole, marking it as one of the most significant advancements in exploration history. The team also conquered Mount Erebus, an active volcano in Antarctica. Marston's illustration perfectly encapsulates the sense of awe and wonder that must have accompanied witnessing such a mesmerizing sunset in this remote and unforgiving environment. The warm hues of orange and gold contrast with the cold blues and whites of ice and snow, creating a striking visual spectacle. This artwork is part of 'The Heart of the Antarctic, ' written by Shackleton himself to document his expeditions. It serves as a testament to both his achievements as an explorer and Marston's talent as an artist. As we gaze upon 'The Autumn Sunset, ' we are reminded not only of nature's extraordinary beauty but also Ernest Shackleton's indomitable spirit in pushing boundaries and venturing into uncharted territories.
