E. W. Nelson with the Nansen-Petersen Insulated Water-Bottle, c1911, (1913). Artist
E. W. Nelson with the Nansen-Petersen Insulated Water-Bottle, c1911, (1913). Expedition biologist Edward W Nelson (1883-1923) carrying out research. A Nansen bottle is a device for obtaining samples of seawater at a specific depth. 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
This print captures the determined spirit of expedition biologist Edward W. Nelson during the Terra Nova Expedition in 1911. In this image, Nelson can be seen carrying out research while holding the innovative Nansen-Petersen Insulated Water-Bottle, a device designed to obtain samples of seawater at specific depths. The Terra Nova Expedition, led by British Antarctic explorer Captain Robert Falcon Scott, aimed to continue scientific work and reach the geographic South Pole for the first time. The team consisted of various experts including geologists, zoologists, surgeons, photographers, engineers, ski experts, meteorologists, and physicists. On January 17th, 1912 - after enduring treacherous conditions and delays caused by blizzards - Scott and his companions Dr. Edward Wilson, Captain Lawrence Oates, Lieutenant Henry Bowers, and Petty Officer Edgar Evans finally reached their long-awaited destination only to discover that Norwegian explorer Amundsen had beaten them there a month earlier. Tragically running low on supplies and faced with harsh weather conditions on their return journey from the pole; Scott's team succumbed to exhaustion and extreme cold at the end of March. Their bodies were discovered eight months later along with their poignant diaries. This remarkable photograph is part of "Scott's Last Expedition" collection (Volume II) published in 1913 by Smith Elder & Co. , providing an invaluable visual record of one of history's most renowned polar expeditions.
