EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Arctic Sketches from the Pandora, drawn on the Wood in the Polar Regions" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an anonymous English artist of the 19th century, this print showcases a collection of sketches that were originally published in The Illustrated London News on October 23rd, 1875. The artwork provides a glimpse into the British Arctic Expedition and its exploration of Canada's polar regions. It depicts various scenes such as Bellof Monument, Cape Riley, and Beechey Island where graves can be seen. These sketches offer valuable insights into the landscapes encountered during these polar expeditions. The wood used for these drawings is believed to be firwood or timber collected during their journey. This material served multiple purposes beyond artistic expression; it was likely utilized as firewood for warmth and kindling during their arduous expedition through North America's icy wilderness. As we observe this historical artifact from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of the bravery and determination exhibited by explorers like George Nares aboard his yacht Mary. Their efforts not only expanded our understanding of remote regions but also contributed to scientific knowledge about our planet's climate and geography. This engraving serves as a testament to human curiosity and resilience while offering us a window into an important chapter in Arctic exploration history.
