EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, depicting the brave and determined Captain Mac Clure on his expedition to discover the traces of the Franklin expedition. In 1850, aboard the Investigator, he embarked on a perilous journey that would span an astonishing fifty-eight years in the ice. The image showcases Captain Mac Clure standing proudly on his vessel, surrounded by icy landscapes as far as the eye can see. The photograph was featured in "Le petit parisien" newspaper on October 5th, 1908, adding to its historical significance. As we gaze at this remarkable piece of art from Stefano Bianchetti's private collection, we are transported back to a time when exploration and discovery were at their peak. The boat serves as both a transport vehicle and a symbol of human resilience against nature's harshest elements. This print not only captures an important moment in Captain Mac Clure's life but also highlights the power of press and journalism during that era. It reminds us of how news traveled through newspapers like "Le petit parisien" bringing stories from distant corners of the world to captivate readers' imaginations. Stefano Bianchetti's skillful composition immortalizes this extraordinary tale of adventure and perseverance. As we admire this print today, it serves as a testament to humanity's unyielding spirit for exploration and our insatiable curiosity about what lies beyond our known horizons.
