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 renowned photographer Herbert Ponting skillfully captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the majestic sledge dog named Chris amidst the vast expanse of snow.

Sitting gracefully on the pristine white snow, he embodies both strength and resilience - qualities that were undoubtedly essential for survival in such an unforgiving environment. The significance of this portrait extends beyond its aesthetic appeal. It serves as a testament to the extraordinary bond between humans and animals, particularly during challenging expeditions like Captain Robert Falcon Scott's mission to explore Antarctica.
