Campbell Afloat in a Kayak, 1911, (1913). Artist: G Murray Levick
Campbell Afloat in a Kayak, 1911, (1913). Canvas sledge boat nicknamed the Great Western, invented by Lieutenant Victor Campbell. The final expedition of British Antarctic explorer Captain Robert Falcon Scott (1868-1912) left London on 1 June 1910 bound for the South Pole. The Terra Nova Expedition, officially the British Antarctic Expedition (1910-1913), included a geologist, a zoologist, a surgeon, a photographer, an engineer, a ski expert, a meteorologist and a physicist among others. Scott wished to continue the scientific work that he had begun when leading the Discovery Expedition to the Antarctic in 1901-04. He also wanted to be the first to reach the geographic South Pole. Scott, accompanied by Dr Edward Wilson, Captain Lawrence Oates, Lieutenant Henry Bowers and Petty Officer Edgar Evans, reached the Pole on 17 January 1912, only to find that the Norwegian expedition under Amundsen had beaten them to their objective by a month. Delayed by blizzards, and running out of supplies, Scott and the remainder of his team died at the end of March. Their bodies and diaries were found eight months later. From Scotts Last Expedition, Volume II. [Smith, Elder & Co. London, 1913]

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Campbell Afloat in a Kayak, 1911" captures the spirit of adventure and exploration during the Terra Nova Expedition. In this image, Lieutenant Victor Campbell is seen navigating the icy waters of Antarctica in his canvas sledge boat, affectionately known as the Great Western. Led by Captain Robert Falcon Scott, this British Antarctic Expedition aimed to conduct scientific research while also striving to be the first to reach the South Pole. The team consisted of experts from various fields such as geology, zoology, surgery, photography, engineering, skiing, meteorology, and physics. On January 17th, 1912, Scott and four others including Dr Edward Wilson and Captain Lawrence Oates finally reached their long-awaited destination only to discover that Norwegian explorer Amundsen had beaten them there by a month. Despite facing blizzards and dwindling supplies on their return journey back to camp due to delays caused by harsh weather conditions; tragedy struck when Scott and his remaining team members perished at the end of March. This poignant photograph serves as a testament to their indomitable spirit and unwavering determination in pursuit of scientific knowledge amidst treacherous conditions. Their bodies were discovered eight months later along with their diaries which provided invaluable insights into their heroic but ultimately tragic expedition. From "Scott's Last Expedition". Volume II published by Smith Elder & Co. , London in 1913; this print preserves an important chapter in polar exploration history for future generations.
