EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving from the 19th century that offers a glimpse into the tools and equipment essential for survival in the harsh Arctic environment. This detailed illustration showcases an array of items carefully chosen to aid explorers on their treacherous journey towards the North Pole. In this print, we see an assortment of tents providing shelter against freezing temperatures, while a water bottle ensures hydration amidst icy landscapes. The presence of cooking utensils, such as a spirit lamp and tea kettle, highlights the importance of nourishment during these polar expeditions. The engraving also features various specialized tools like ice saws, gouges, and axes necessary for navigating through frozen terrain. Additionally, blasting tins suggest that explosive measures were employed to overcome obstacles encountered along the way. Notably, dog sledges play a crucial role in transportation across vast distances covered in snow and ice. These sledges are laden with provisions including pemmican choppers for food preparation and rum for warmth during cold nights spent sleeping on duffel sleeping bags or canvas suits. The attention to detail in this artwork allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in creating these apparatuses and their significance in enabling successful exploration missions. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience when faced with extreme conditions found within arctic regions. This print from Bridgeman Images provides an intriguing insight into historical polar exploration without mentioning any commercial use associated with it.
