New Coast-Line West of Cape North, c1908, (1909). Artist: George Marston
New Coast-Line West of Cape North, 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
This print captures the breathtaking new coast-line west of Cape North in Antarctica, circa 1908. The artist behind this masterpiece is George Marston, who accompanied Anglo-Irish explorer Ernest Shackleton on his second expedition to the Antarctic from 1907 to 1909. During this daring journey, Shackleton and three companions achieved an extraordinary feat by reaching the Farthest South latitude at 88° S. This remarkable record was a mere 97 geographical miles away from the elusive South Pole, marking the greatest advancement towards it in exploration history. Additionally, members of Shackleton's team conquered Mount Erebus, one of Antarctica's most active volcanoes. For his exceptional achievements during these expeditions, King Edward VII knighted Shackleton. However, tragedy struck during his third and final oceanographic and sub-antarctic expedition when he passed away at the age of 47. The illustration featured here is based on an original painting by George Marston himself. It comes from "The Heart of the Antarctic". Volume I written by E. H. Shackleton and published in London in 1909 by William Heinemann. This historic photograph offers us a glimpse into a time when brave explorers like Ernest Shackleton pushed boundaries and ventured into uncharted territories for scientific discovery.
