EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1851, when a brave group of explorers embarked on an Arctic Searching Expedition in hopes of discovering the lost ships under the command of Sir John Franklin. The image showcases a journal documenting their boat voyage through Ruperts land and the Arctic Sea. The engraving, created by British School in the 19th century, captures the essence of this daring expedition. It transports us to a time when exploration was filled with uncertainty and danger, yet fueled by curiosity and determination. In this scene, we see a group of individuals navigating through icy waters, surrounded by vast stretches of untouched wilderness. Their faces reflect both excitement and trepidation as they venture deeper into uncharted territories. The presence of an American Indian figure hints at the diverse backgrounds that came together for this mission. Canadians and Americans united in their quest to uncover the fate of Sir John Franklin's ships. Leonard de Selva's photograph beautifully captures this historical moment, preserving it for future generations to admire. Through his lens, we can almost feel the biting cold air against our skin and hear the creaking sounds of ice breaking beneath our feet. This artwork serves as a reminder not only of human resilience but also our insatiable thirst for discovery. It is a testament to mankind's relentless pursuit to unravel mysteries hidden within nature's most unforgiving landscapes – even at great personal risk.
