Browning at the Igloo Door, 1912, (1913). Artist: G Murray Levick

Browning at the Igloo Door, 1912, (1913). Petty officer Frank V Browning at entrance to ice cave. The final expedition of British Antarctic explorer Captain Robert Falcon Scott (1868-1912) left London on 1 June 1910 bound for the South Pole. The Terra Nova Expedition, officially the British Antarctic Expedition (1910-1913), included a geologist, a zoologist, a surgeon, a photographer, an engineer, a ski expert, a meteorologist and a physicist among others. Scott wished to continue the scientific work that he had begun when leading the Discovery Expedition to the Antarctic in 1901-04. He also wanted to be the first to reach the geographic South Pole. Scott, accompanied by Dr Edward Wilson, Captain Lawrence Oates, Lieutenant Henry Bowers and Petty Officer Edgar Evans, reached the Pole on 17 January 1912, only to find that the Norwegian expedition under Amundsen had beaten them to their objective by a month. Delayed by blizzards, and running out of supplies, Scott and the remainder of his team died at the end of March. Their bodies and diaries were found eight months later. From Scotts Last Expedition, Volume II. [Smith, Elder & Co. London, 1913]

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Browning at the Igloo Door, 1912" captures a poignant moment from the final expedition of British Antarctic explorer Captain Robert Falcon Scott. Taken by G Murray Levick in 1913, it showcases Petty Officer Frank V Browning standing at the entrance to an ice cave. In June 1910, Captain Scott embarked on the Terra Nova Expedition with a team of scientists and experts. Their mission was twofold: to continue scientific research in Antarctica and to be the first to reach the South Pole. However, upon reaching their destination on January 17,1912, they discovered that Norwegian explorer Amundsen had beaten them by a month. This photograph symbolizes both triumph and tragedy. Browning's presence at the igloo door represents their hard-fought journey and determination amidst harsh conditions. It serves as a testament to their unwavering spirit despite facing extreme challenges. Sadly, this historic expedition ended in disaster. Delayed by blizzards and running out of supplies, Scott and his remaining team members perished in March 1912. Their bodies were found eight months later along with their diaries which provided invaluable insights into their courageous endeavor. "Browning at the Igloo Door" is not just a photograph; it encapsulates an extraordinary chapter in exploration history filled with ambition, bravery, and sacrifice. It stands as a reminder of mankind's relentless pursuit of knowledge even under unforgiving circumstances
