EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the moment of discovery during the 1879-81 expedition led by American explorer George De Long aboard the ship Jeanette. De Long's groundbreaking exploration aimed to prove that the Arctic Sea ice was not stationary, but rather moved by ocean currents. As they sailed through the polar region, the Jeanette became trapped in the ice and was eventually crushed and sank. Miraculously, the crew survived and managed to make their way to the abandoned Russian settlement of Wrangel Island. There, they discovered the remains of the 1847 expedition led by Eliseyev and Krasilnikov. The skeletons of the explorers, along with their belongings and journals, provided invaluable insights into the harsh realities of Arctic exploration. This poignant discovery underscored the importance of perseverance and determination in the face of adversity. De Long's expedition not only proved that the Arctic ice was in constant motion but also added to the rich historical record of polar exploration. This image, taken from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, serves as a powerful reminder of the indomitable human spirit and the enduring allure of the unknown.
