EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a remarkable moment in history - the Moth aeroplane in Angmagssalik, during the British Arctic Air Route Expedition of 1930-31. Taken by renowned photographer Henry Iliffe Cozens, this image transports us back to a time when aviation was still in its infancy and exploration of remote regions was at its peak. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a De Havilland Moth biplane gracefully perched on skis atop an icy surface. The aircraft's sleek design is juxtaposed against the rugged backdrop of snow-covered mountains that stretch endlessly into the distance. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit to conquer even the most inhospitable terrains. But what truly brings life to this photograph is the presence of Inuit men and boys standing behind, their curious gazes fixed upon this marvel from another world. Their traditional clothing blends harmoniously with their surroundings, highlighting their deep connection with nature and resilience amidst harsh conditions. As we contemplate this scene frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of both cultural exchange and technological progress. The meeting point between ancient traditions and modern innovation creates an atmosphere filled with wonderment and possibility. Preserved by the University of Cambridge SPRI (Scott Polar Research Institute), this print not only documents an extraordinary expedition but also acts as a window into our shared human history. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come since those early days of aviation while inspiring us to continue pushing boundaries for future generations yet unborn.
