EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of Sunday morning service aboard the Alert during the Nares expedition in 1875. The expedition, led by Captain George Nares, aimed to restore Britain's claim to the farthest north record with their ships Alert and Discovery. As the crew gathers for worship on deck, you can almost hear the sound of hymns being sung aloud and prayers being offered up for safe passage through treacherous polar waters.
The historical significance of this image is palpable as it transports us back to a time when exploration was at its peak and brave men ventured into unknown territories in search of discovery. The events that unfolded aboard the Alert during this fateful expedition are etched into history, reminding us of the courage and determination required to push boundaries and expand our understanding of the world around us.
As we gaze upon this scene from over a century ago, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who came before us in pursuit of knowledge and adventure. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our shared human history and the enduring spirit of exploration that continues to drive us forward today.
