EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Scottish National Antarctic Expedition of 1902-04, we are transported back in time to witness a remarkable moment in polar exploration. The image showcases the intrepid explorer Ross, standing confidently on skis amidst a vast expanse of ice and snow. With one ski pole firmly grasped in his hand, he epitomizes both grace and determination as he navigates the treacherous terrain. The backdrop is equally awe-inspiring, with the majestic sailing ship Scotia anchored against the icy landscape. Its towering masts and intricate rigging serve as a stark reminder of the challenges faced by these early explorers as they ventured into uncharted territories. The ship's presence also hints at the vital role it played in supporting their mission, providing shelter and supplies amidst an unforgiving environment. The photograph perfectly captures the essence of adventure and discovery that defined this historic expedition led by William Speirs Bruce. It serves as a testament to human resilience and curiosity, showcasing our innate desire to push boundaries and explore new frontiers. Preserved by University of Cambridge's Scott Polar Research Institute (SPRI), this print offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten.
