EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the steamship Roosevelt as it sets sail for the Arctic at the commencement of Robert E. Peary's groundbreaking 1908-1909 North Pole Expedition. The 700-ton vessel, a crucial component of Peary's historic journey, transports him and his team to Cape Sheridan on Ellesmere Island. From this icy outpost, Peary embarks on his successful attempt to reach the North Pole, becoming the first American to achieve this remarkable feat. The Roosevelt, a symbol of determination and exploration, departs with a sense of purpose and anticipation, as Peary and his team prepare to face the harsh Arctic conditions. The image, taken in December 1908, is a testament to the courage and resilience of those who dared to venture into the unknown, pushing the boundaries of human exploration. Peary's North Pole Expedition holds a significant place in the annals of polar history, and this photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past. The ship, with its powerful smokestacks billowing steam into the frigid air, stands as a reminder of the indomitable human spirit and the relentless pursuit of discovery. As the Roosevelt sails away from the shore, the crew members, bundled up against the cold, stand at attention on the deck, ready to face the challenges that lie ahead. The photograph encapsulates the excitement, hope, and uncertainty that accompanied polar exploration during this era, making it an essential addition to any collection of historical images.
