EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, renowned Norwegian explorer Thor Heyerdahl (1914-2002) is seen at his home in Tenerife, Canary Islands, in the year 1995. The image captures Heyerdahl in his element, surrounded by the lush greenery and tropical climate that mirrored the Polynesian islands he had explored for decades. Heyerdahl, best known for his groundbreaking Kon-Tiki expedition in 1947, is seen here in the 1990s, a time when his adventurous spirit and pioneering explorations continued to intrigue and inspire people around the world. In this photograph, he appears thoughtful and reflective, perhaps pondering the mysteries of the earth and the vast oceans that had captivated him for a lifetime. The Kon-Tiki expedition, which took place in 1947, saw Heyerdahl and his crew sailing a balsa wood raft named Kon-Tiki from South America to the Polynesian islands, proving that ancient Polynesians could have reached the islands by traveling on such rafts. This daring journey, documented in the book "Kon-Tiki," brought Heyerdahl international fame and solidified his place in history as a fearless explorer. In this photograph, Heyerdahl is seen wearing a green Earth Day T-shirt, a testament to his commitment to environmental causes and his deep connection to the natural world. The papyrus-like plants in the background, reminiscent of the Ra II reed boat he sailed from Morocco to Barbados in 1970, add to the exotic and adventurous atmosphere of the scene. Overall, this photograph of Thor Heyerdahl at his home in Tenerife in 1995 captures the essence of a man who dedicated his life to exploration and discovery, leaving a lasting impact on our understanding of human history and the natural world.
