EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of camaraderie and celebration during a harsh Midwinter day at Cape Evans in 1916. The image, part of the 'Polar Exploration' series by Players cigarette cards, shows five men inside an expedition hut, taking a break from their routine tasks. One man is seated on the table playing a balalaika, adding a touch of music to the scene.
The reverse side of the card provides more context, describing how June 22nd, 1911 was designated as a holiday by Capt. Scott for the members of the expedition. On this special day, no work was undertaken beyond cleaning the hut and exercising the ponies. It offers a glimpse into daily life and traditions during Antarctic exploration missions.
The vibrant colors and detailed depiction bring this historical moment to life, showcasing both the challenges and moments of respite experienced by these brave explorers. This small but powerful image serves as a reminder of human resilience in extreme conditions and highlights the spirit of adventure that drove these men to push boundaries in pursuit of knowledge and discovery.
