EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting print captures the grim discovery of the remains of three lost explorers, James Harding, Frederick Panter, and William Goldwyer near Lagrange Bay in north-west Australia. In 1864, these brave men embarked on an expedition to explore the uncharted territory surrounding Lagrange Bay in search of pastoral land. Tragically, their journey ended in violence as they were mercilessly clubbed and speared to death by unknown assailants. Their bodies lay hidden for months until this chilling moment when their final resting place was uncovered. James Harding, a skilled pastoralist and explorer born in 1838, had ventured into colonial Western Australia with hopes of discovering new opportunities. Frederick Kennedy Panter joined him on this perilous mission; he was not only a police officer but also a determined explorer who shared Harding's passion for adventure. The third member of this ill-fated trio was William Goldwyer—a fellow police officer and explorer—who met his untimely demise alongside his comrades. Published in The Illustrated London News in 1865, this photograph serves as a somber reminder of the risks faced by those who dared to venture into unexplored lands during colonial times. It immortalizes the bravery and sacrifice of these three men whose lives were tragically cut short while pursuing their dreams amidst the harsh Australian wilderness.
