EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the brave Lieutenant Bowers during the historic Terra Nova expedition to the South Pole. Taken by renowned photographer Herbert Ponting, this bromide print is a rare gem from the original glass negative. Lieutenant Bowers stands tall in his protective clothing, donning fur mittens and boots as he poses for this portrait. His determined expression reflects the spirit of exploration that defined this British Antarctic Expedition led by Robert Falcon Scott. In this frozen landscape of snow and ice, Bowers's presence exudes strength and resilience. Skis rest beside him, ready to carry him through treacherous terrain on his quest for discovery. The stark contrast between his dark attire and the pristine white surroundings adds an air of mystery to this image. As part of Scott's last expedition, Lieutenant Henry Robertson Bowers played a crucial role in scientific research and mapping Antarctica's uncharted territories. This photograph immortalizes his contribution to polar exploration. Preserved within The Stapleton Collection, this extraordinary print offers a glimpse into history—a testament to human determination in one of Earth's most unforgiving environments. It serves as a reminder of those who risked everything in pursuit of knowledge and adventure.
