EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Alfred Stephenson during the British Graham Land Expedition of 1934-37, we are transported back to a moment frozen in time. The image showcases a De Havilland Moth biplane gracefully resting on the calm waters of Penolas anchorage, Stella Creek, on that fateful day of 25 February 1936. As our eyes wander through the frame, we cannot help but be drawn to the striking contrast between man-made marvel and nature's grandeur. The sturdy aircraft with its floats sits serenely against an imposing backdrop of an ice cliff, reminding us of the sheer power and beauty that Antarctica possesses. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its visual appeal but also in its historical context. It serves as a testament to human exploration and determination amidst one of Earth's harshest environments. Led by John Rymill, the British Graham Land Expedition sought to unravel the mysteries hidden within these icy landscapes. Stephenson's expert composition allows us to appreciate both the delicate details and vastness surrounding this scene. We can almost feel ourselves standing there alongside those intrepid explorers who dared venture into uncharted territories for scientific discovery. This print from University of Cambridge SPRI is more than just an archival record; it encapsulates a spirit of adventure and curiosity that continues to drive mankind forward. It reminds us that even in seemingly inhospitable places like Antarctica, humans have always found ways to push boundaries and expand our understanding of the world around us. So let your imagination take flight as you gaze upon this remarkable image – envision yourself aboard that very plane ready for departure or simply revel in awe at nature's breathtaking wonders displayed before you.
