EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Quest at Vaag, Faroes. Whales on plan" takes us back to a remarkable moment in history during the British Arctic Air Route Expedition of 1930-31. The photographer, Henry Iliffe Cozens (1904-1995), skillfully captures a scene that is both awe-inspiring and thought-provoking. In this photograph, we see the renowned expedition leader Henry George Watkins, affectionately known as Gino Watkins, standing proudly beside his vessel - the Quest - anchored off the coast of Vaag in the Faroe Islands. The ship's imposing presence against the backdrop of rugged cliffs and turbulent waters hints at the challenges that lie ahead for these intrepid explorers. However, it is not just their quest for adventure that draws our attention; it is also what lies before them. A group of majestic whales gracefully swim alongside their vessel, seemingly unbothered by its imposing size. This unexpected encounter with nature's giants adds an element of wonder to an already extraordinary expedition. The University of Cambridge SPRI has preserved this historical artifact with great care and now shares it with us all. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in polar exploration when brave men like Watkins pushed boundaries and sought new frontiers. As we gaze upon this photograph today, let us reflect on the courage and determination exhibited by those who came before us. Let it serve as a reminder that even amidst adversity and uncertainty, there is always room for discovery and growth – whether it be through scientific endeavors or personal journeys. May this image inspire future generations to embark on their own quests for knowledge and understanding while respecting the delicate balance between humans and nature – just as these pioneers did almost a century ago.
