EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a pivotal moment in American explorer Doctor Elisha Kent Kane's Arctic expeditions. The image depicts a treacherous scene as men courageously navigate their sled through the icy belt at Coffee Gorge. Engraved by R. Hinshlewood after a work by J. Hamilton from a sketch by Doctor Kane himself, this illustration beautifully captures the intensity of the crossing. A snowstorm rages around them, adding an element of danger and uncertainty to their journey. The explorers' determination is palpable as they push forward against all odds, battling nature's forces in pursuit of discovery and knowledge. This engraving serves as a testament to human resilience and our unyielding desire for exploration. Published in Philadelphia by Childs and Peterson in 1856, this volume holds historical significance not only for its documentation of Arctic explorations but also for its contribution to the field of cartography and scientific understanding during that era. Ken Welsh has masterfully brought this piece of history back to life with his expert reproduction skills. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time, gaining insight into the challenges faced by these brave adventurers who pushed boundaries in search of new frontiers.
