EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A Mile and a Half North in Eight Hours, pub. London 1907" we are transported back to the early 20th century, where brave explorers embarked on treacherous journeys into the frozen Arctic wilderness. The image, captured through a colour lithograph by Anthony Fiala, offers us a glimpse into the arduous and difficult conditions faced by these intrepid adventurers. As we gaze upon the scene, we witness an explorer hacking away at the icy terrain with his trusty pickaxe. Every step forward is met with great difficulty as he battles against freezing temperatures and formidable obstacles that nature throws his way. The frozen landscape stretches out before him, seemingly endless and unforgiving. This expedition was led by Anthon Fiala himself, commander of the Ziegler Fialia Polar Expedition. His determination to conquer uncharted territories pushed him onwards despite all odds. It is through images like these that we gain insight into the incredible resilience and courage displayed by these early explorers. The mile and a half journey depicted here symbolizes not only physical distance but also represents an exploration of one's own limits in pursuit of knowledge about our planet's most remote regions. This photograph serves as a reminder of humanity's insatiable curiosity for discovery and our enduring spirit to push beyond what seems possible.
