EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image from the Mary Evans Picture Library, the ships HMS Erebus and Terror are seen leaving England's shores for the final time on May 19, 1845, embarking on Sir John Franklin's ill-fated polar expedition. The Victorian era's most ambitious Arctic exploration endeavor aimed to discover the long-sought Northwest Passage and secure British dominance in the global maritime trade. The Erebus and Terror, both newly refitted and equipped for the harsh Arctic conditions, were manned by a crew of 129 officers and men, along with their families and scientific team. As they sailed away from the safety of English harbors, the excitement of the voyage was tinged with a sense of trepidation, as the Arctic's unforgiving climate and treacherous waters had claimed countless ships and lives before. The expedition, which marked Sir John Franklin's third attempt to navigate the Northwest Passage, was expected to take three years. However, the ships and their crew were never seen or heard from again. The loss of Franklin and his crew remains one of the greatest mysteries in maritime history, with the first definitive evidence of their fate not emerging until 2014, when the remains of the Erebus were discovered in the Canadian Arctic. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a poignant reminder of the brave men and their ships that set sail on this historic but ultimately tragic journey into the unknown, leaving England's shores and venturing into the Arctic's unforgiving waters in search of discovery and progress.
