EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of Discovery Bay in the North Pole during summer. Taken by English photographer Leonard de Selva in the 19th century, this image is a remarkable testament to human exploration and discovery. The vastness of the landscape is truly breathtaking, with snow-capped mountains towering over crystal-clear waters. The tranquil bay reflects the vibrant blue sky above, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere. It's as if time stands still in this remote corner of the world. This photograph was featured in "Narrative of a voyage to the Polar Sea during 1875-76" edited by G. S. Nares and published in London in 1878. It offers us a glimpse into an era when adventurers embarked on perilous journeys to unravel the mysteries of uncharted territories. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at nature's grandeur and our own insignificance within it. This photo serves as a reminder that there are still places on Earth where humans have barely set foot, reminding us of both our curiosity and limitations. Leonard de Selva's skillful composition allows us to immerse ourselves in this frozen wonderland from afar, evoking feelings of wonderment and wanderlust. It invites us to embark on our own journey through imagination while appreciating the courage and determination it took for those who ventured into these icy realms centuries ago.
