EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of Lieutenant Tyson's daily routine during his exploration of the North Pole. The image captures Lieutenant Tyson engrossed in his morning toilet, delicately combing his hair before putting on his boots. Etched after a drawing by E. Riou, this illustration is part of the story of the Polaris ice raft, chronicled by Lieutenant Tyson between 1870 and 1873. Published in "Le tour du monde" in 1875 and edited by Edouard Charton, this piece offers us a glimpse into the fascinating world of Arctic exploration. Lieutenant Tyson's meticulous attention to personal hygiene amidst such harsh conditions speaks volumes about the resilience and dedication required for these perilous journeys. As he prepares himself for another day filled with unknown challenges and discoveries, we can't help but admire his unwavering commitment to both practicality and style. The Selva Collection has preserved this remarkable piece from history, allowing us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. Leonard de Selva's expertly captured photograph brings forth every intricate detail etched on paper centuries ago. This print serves as a reminder that even amidst extreme circumstances, humanity finds ways to maintain normalcy through everyday rituals like grooming. It invites us to reflect on our own routines while marveling at those who have ventured into uncharted territories throughout history.
