In this photo print, we are transported back in time to the early 20th century and introduced to Edgar Evans, a Petty Officer 1st Class of the renowned British Antarctic Expedition of 1910-13. Captured by the talented photographer Herbert Ponting, this portrait showcases Evans standing outside a humble hut adorned in his sledging gear. With an air of determination and resilience etched on his face, he holds a pickaxe effortlessly over his shoulder. The significance of this image lies not only in its historical context but also in its representation of human strength amidst extreme conditions. As part of Captain Robert Falcon Scott's team, Evans played an integral role in their ambitious quest for scientific discovery and exploration within the unforgiving landscapes of Antarctica. This photograph finds its home at the Scott Polar Research Institute, nestled within the prestigious University of Cambridge.
