EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing print captures a piece of history from the 19th century - tinned pemmican from 1875. The tin, made of metal, contains a mixture of dried and pounded meat mixed with fat, known as pemmican. This particular tin was used on Nares' Arctic expedition in 1875, serving as essential sustenance for the explorers during their treacherous journey.
The square tin with curved edges and separate lid is half full of pemmican, providing a glimpse into the provisions that sustained these brave adventurers in harsh conditions. The inside lid is labeled "PEMMICAN ARCTIC FOOD (8)", while the outside bears the inscription "Plain pemmican 16 lb" under a coat of black paint.
Pemmican was a staple food for many expeditions due to its high energy content and long shelf life. It provided much-needed sustenance for explorers facing extreme cold and challenging environments.
This print serves as a fascinating window into the past, showcasing not only an important historical artifact but also shedding light on the ingenuity and resourcefulness of those who ventured into uncharted territories. It stands as a testament to human resilience and determination in the face of adversity.
