The photograph documents a pivotal moment during the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition led by Ernest Shackleton in 1914-17. On that fateful day in December 1914, as their ship ventured deeper into uncharted territory, they encountered an awe-inspiring sight – the vast expanse of pack ice stretching out before them.
