"Headed towards the unknown, HMS Erebus and HMS Terror set sail in 1845, embarking on a treacherous journey. As Baphomet symbolizes the equilibrium of opposites, these ships represented both bravery and vulnerability. Shire Horses pull the plough, showcasing strength amidst adversity. Captain Francis Crozier led HMS Terror fearlessly through uncharted waters while facing the Russian Imperial Eagle's icy grip. A Seagers Gin Advert reminds us of the courage needed to navigate such perilous conditions. The Winged Assyrian Bull stands as a testament to resilience in times of hardship. The Enterprise and Investigator find themselves surrounded by ice in Barro, an unforgiving landscape that tests their determination. Captain Sir John Franklin's leadership guided his crew through unimaginable challenges until tragedy struck. Picture No. 10856402 captures the haunting end of Sir John Franklin's Arctic Expedition in 1845, leaving behind a legacy etched into history. Amidst towering peaks lies hope for those who dare to venture further. These highest mountains serve as reminders that even when faced with insurmountable obstacles, human spirit prevails. " Note.
