Dal'geolkom Collective Seeing off Geologist P.I. Polevoi to Leningrad, 1928. Creator: Unknown

Dal'geolkom Collective Seeing off Geologist P.I. Polevoi to Leningrad, 1928. From the family archive of prominent geologist Mikhail Alekseevich Pavlov (1884-1938). While still a student, Pavlov took part in the attempted expedition to the North Pole in 1912-14, which was led by the Arctic explorer Georgii Iakovlevich Sedov (1877-1914). Along with his school and university friend Vladimir Iul'evich Vize (1886-1954), who served as the expedition's geographer, Pavlov collected a large body of scientific data on the northern archipelago of Novaya Zemlya. The photographs date from approximately 1875-1929. They depict Pavlov's geological expeditions in Siberia and the Far East, expedition participants, views of nature, Pavlov during his school and university years, and his family members in various years.
