EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Scott Polar Research Institute, we are transported back to a defining moment in history - the British Arctic Air Route Expedition of 1930-31. The photographer, Frederick Spencer Chapman, skillfully captures an enigmatic figure amidst the harsh and unforgiving Arctic landscape. The subject of this portrait is Augustine Courtauld, a man whose rugged appearance reflects both his resilience and determination. With a wild beard framing his weathered face and unkempt hair blowing in the frigid wind, Courtauld stands proudly before a sledge that symbolizes the challenges he has faced on this treacherous journey. As we gaze into Courtauld's eyes, there is an undeniable sense of adventure and exploration burning within him. His unwavering spirit shines through despite the hardships endured during their arduous expedition. It is clear that he possesses an indomitable willpower necessary for survival in such extreme conditions. This photograph not only serves as a testament to individual strength but also highlights the collaborative efforts of Henry George Watkins' team. Their shared goal was to establish an air route across these icy terrains – a feat that required immense courage and perseverance. Preserved by the University of Cambridge SPRI (Scott Polar Research Institute), this image allows us to glimpse into a pivotal moment in polar exploration history.
