EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Cecil H Meares, a remarkable member of Captain Scott's Antarctic expedition from 1910 to 1913. As an artist and dog handler, Meares played a crucial role in the exploration of Antarctica during this historic period. The image captures his determined gaze and rugged appearance, reflecting the harsh conditions he faced while venturing into the unknown. Meares' expertise as a driver was invaluable to the expedition team, navigating treacherous terrains with his loyal canine companions by his side. His dedication to his job is evident in this portrait, highlighting the resilience and bravery required for such an undertaking. The photograph was taken by Herbert George Ponting, another notable figure on this groundbreaking voyage. Ponting's skillful composition immortalizes Meares' contribution to British exploration history. Preserved within the Historica Graphica Collection, this image serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who ventured into uncharted territories in pursuit of knowledge and discovery. It encapsulates both Meares' individuality and represents all men involved in polar expeditions during that era. This print offers us a glimpse into one man's extraordinary journey amidst frozen landscapes—an enduring reminder of human determination against nature's harshest elements.
