EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Greenstreet (illustrating breath icicles)" takes us back in time to the daring Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1914-17, led by the legendary Ernest Shackleton. Preserved within the archives of the Scott Polar Research Institute at the University of Cambridge, this remarkable image was captured by Frank Hurley, a renowned photographer known for his documentation of polar expeditions. The subject of this portrait is Lionel Greenstreet, a member of Shackleton's team who braved unimaginable conditions during their treacherous journey across Antarctica. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are immediately drawn to Greenstreet's awe-inspiring beard and mustache adorned with delicate icicles formed from his own breath. Intriguingly frozen in time, Greenstreet's stoic expression reveals both determination and resilience amidst the harsh Antarctic environment. The icy crystals clinging to his facial hair serve as a testament to the extreme cold endured by these intrepid explorers on their arduous expedition. This image not only captures an extraordinary moment but also encapsulates the indomitable spirit that characterized Shackleton's crew. It serves as a poignant reminder of their unwavering commitment to scientific discovery and human endurance in one of Earth's most unforgiving landscapes. Preserved within this print lies a tangible connection to history – an enduring symbol of exploration and bravery against all odds. Through its display at SPRI, it continues to inspire generations with its depiction of human triumph over adversity. As we contemplate this photograph taken more than a century ago, let us reflect on those who came before us; those whose courage paved the way for our understanding and appreciation of our planet’s most remote corners.
