Group in the Hut in the Summer: Joyce at the Sewing Machine, 1908, (1909)
Group in the Hut in the Summer: Joyce at the Sewing Machine, 1908, (1909). Royal Naval seaman Ernest Joyce was in charge of dogs and sledges during the expedition. Anglo-Irish explorer Ernest Shackleton (1874-1922) made three expeditions to the Antarctic. During the second expedition, 1907-1909, he and three companions established a new record, Farthest South latitude at 88° S, only 97 geographical miles (112 statute miles, or 180 km) from the South Pole, the largest advance to the pole in exploration history. Members of his team also climbed Mount Erebus, the most active volcano in the Antarctic. Shackleton was knighted by King Edward VII for these achievements. He died during his third and last oceanographic and sub-antarctic expedition, aged 47. Illustration from The Heart of the Antarctic, Vol. I, by E. H. Shackleton, C.V.O. [William Heinemann, London, 1909]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Group in the Hut in the Summer: Joyce at the Sewing Machine, 1908" offers a glimpse into the remarkable Nimrod Expedition led by renowned Anglo-Irish explorer Ernest Shackleton. The image showcases Royal Naval seaman Ernest Joyce diligently operating a sewing machine amidst their Antarctic base camp. During this second expedition from 1907 to 1909, Shackleton and his team achieved an extraordinary feat by reaching the Farthest South latitude of 88° S, coming within a mere 97 geographical miles of the elusive South Pole. This groundbreaking accomplishment marked the greatest advancement towards the pole in exploration history. Aside from their polar conquests, members of Shackleton's team also undertook daring ascents on Mount Erebus, one of Antarctica's most active volcanoes. These brave individuals faced unimaginable challenges and pushed themselves to new limits in pursuit of scientific knowledge and human achievement. Tragically, Shackleton met his untimely demise during his third oceanographic and sub-Antarctic expedition at just 47 years old. However, his legacy lives on as he was knighted by King Edward VII for his exceptional contributions to exploration. This illustration is taken from "The Heart of the Antarctic". Volume I written by E. H. Shackleton himself. It provides us with a visual testament to both the preparation involved before embarking on such treacherous journeys and highlights Ernest Joyce's vital role as overseer of dogs and sledges during this historic expedition.
