EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Royds with Albino Penguin" we are transported back in time to the early 20th century, amidst the British National Antarctic Expedition of 1901-04. The photographer, Charles William Rawson Royds (1876-1931), captures a remarkable moment that epitomizes the spirit of exploration and discovery. Lieutenant Royds, a key member of the expedition led by Captain Robert Falcon Scott, stands proudly on an icy landscape. With his steady grip on a pole and two penguins tied with rope, he exudes both curiosity and respect for these fascinating creatures that inhabit one of Earth's most extreme environments. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the albino penguin - a rare sight indeed. Its striking white plumage contrasts against the surrounding ice and serves as a symbol of nature's extraordinary diversity. This unique encounter offers us an opportunity to reflect upon our own place within this vast ecosystem. As we delve deeper into Lieutenant Royds' expression, we can sense his admiration for these resilient animals who have adapted to survive in such harsh conditions. His presence here represents not only scientific inquiry but also humanity's enduring fascination with exploring uncharted territories. This particular print is housed at the Scott Polar Research Institute at the University of Cambridge – an institution dedicated to advancing polar research and preserving historical records from expeditions like this one. Through their efforts, they ensure that moments frozen in time like "Royds with Albino Penguin" continue to inspire generations by reminding us of our planet's boundless wonders waiting to be discovered.
