EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the early 20th century during the British Antarctic Expedition of 1910-13. The image captures a remarkable moment as Dr Levick, accompanied by his ever-present pipe, sits on the deck of the majestic ship Terra Nova engaged in an intriguing task - skinning a penguin. The scene is both fascinating and thought-provoking. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but be struck by the dedication and commitment displayed by these intrepid explorers who ventured into one of Earth's most inhospitable environments. Their relentless pursuit of scientific knowledge led them to undertake extraordinary feats such as dissecting and studying wildlife specimens like this penguin. Dr Levick's poised demeanor amidst such a peculiar activity adds an air of intrigue to the photograph. His focused expression hints at his meticulous approach towards understanding every aspect of Antarctica's unique ecosystem. Through their research efforts, these brave men sought to unravel nature's secrets hidden within this icy realm. This particular print from the Scott Polar Research Institute at the University of Cambridge serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity and thirst for discovery. It reminds us that even in extreme conditions far removed from civilization, there are those who dedicate themselves selflessly to expanding our collective knowledge. As we reflect on this image captured by photographer Herbert Ponting, let us appreciate not only its historical significance but also acknowledge the invaluable contributions made by individuals like Dr Levick and Captain Robert Falcon Scott whose endeavors continue to shape our understanding of Antarctica today.
