EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the brave officers who sailed alongside Sir John Franklin in search of the elusive North-West Passage in 1845. The image showcases the men who embarked on Franklin's fourth and final expedition aboard the ships 'Erebus' and 'Terror', determined to traverse the last unnavigated section of this treacherous passage.
Despite their courage and determination, tragedy struck as their ships became trapped in ice near King William Island in the Canadian Arctic. The entire expedition complement, including Franklin and 128 men, met a fatal end in these icy waters.
The photo serves as a poignant reminder of the risks taken by these explorers in pursuit of knowledge and discovery. It captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the faces of those who dared to venture into unknown territories for the advancement of science and exploration.
As we gaze upon this historic image, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by these sailors and officers, whose legacy lives on through their courageous spirit. Their story is one that will forever be etched into history as a testament to human resilience and bravery in the face of adversity.
