EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the image of Henry Foster Collins, Second Mate, in 1845. A member of Sir John Franklin's ill-fated expedition to traverse the last unnavigated section of the North-West Passage, Collins embarked on this dangerous journey aboard the ships 'Erebus' and 'Terror'. Unfortunately, tragedy struck as their ships became icebound in Victoria Strait near King William Island in the Canadian Arctic.
Collins was one of 128 men who perished during this doomed expedition, leaving behind a legacy of bravery and exploration. His stoic expression in this photograph speaks volumes about the challenges he faced and the courage he displayed in pursuit of discovery.
As we gaze upon this portrait from the 19th century, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by early explorers like Henry Foster Collins. Their quest for knowledge and adventure pushed boundaries and expanded our understanding of the world around us.
This image serves as a poignant reminder of those who risked everything in search of new horizons. It is a testament to human resilience and determination in the face of adversity. Henry Foster Collins may have been lost to history, but his spirit lives on through photographs like this one that capture his essence for future generations to admire and reflect upon.
