EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Fridtjof Nansen (1861-1930) is seen in the prime of his later years, as he receives the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, Norway, in 1922. Nansen, a Norwegian explorer, scientist, diplomat, and humanitarian, is best known for his polar expeditions, including leading the first crossing of Greenland on foot and reaching further west than any other expedition in the Arctic. However, his accomplishments extended far beyond the realm of exploration. In the aftermath of the First World War and related conflicts, Nansen became a tireless advocate for the displaced victims of these conflicts. He established the Nansen International Office for Refugees, which provided relief and assistance to millions of refugees, primarily from Eastern Europe. For his humanitarian efforts, Nansen was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1922. In this image, Nansen is dressed in formal attire, wearing a top hat and a thick moustache. He exudes a sense of gravitas and determination, as he accepts the prestigious award. The photograph captures a pivotal moment in history, as Nansen's work on behalf of the displaced victims of war marked a significant shift in international diplomacy and humanitarianism. The image is a testament to Nansen's enduring legacy, as a pioneering explorer, a visionary diplomat, and a compassionate humanitarian. This photograph, taken in the 1920s, is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, when the world was grappling with the aftermath of a devastating war and looking for new ways to promote peace and human dignity. The image is a powerful reminder of the enduring power of human compassion and the role that individuals can play in shaping history.
