EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a significant moment in history - the Duke of the Abruzzis Polar Expedition. The image showcases the majestic "Stella Polare" ship, peacefully lying off Christiania (now Oslo), as it embarks on its daring voyage to explore the polar regions. The Duke of the Abruzzis Polar Expedition was a groundbreaking endeavor led by Italian nobleman Luigi Amedeo di Savoia, also known as the Duke of Abruzzi. This expedition aimed to conquer uncharted territories and push the boundaries of human exploration. The lithograph beautifully portrays the grandeur and strength of "Stella Polare" with its tall masts reaching towards an endless sky. The calm waters surrounding Christiania reflect a sense of tranquility amidst an impending adventure into treacherous icy landscapes. As we gaze at this print, we are transported back to 1899 when this illustration first appeared in The Graphic magazine. It serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity and relentless pursuit of knowledge. Today, this lithograph stands as a reminder of our collective fascination with exploration and discovery.

Whether displayed in private collections or public spaces, this artwork continues to inspire awe and ignite imaginations across generations.
