1873 Bermuda Caribbean Challenger Discovery Hms Challenger Voyage
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1873, depicts the Old Commissioners House in Bermuda during the historic voyage of H.M.S. Challenger. Funded by the British Government for scientific purposes, the Challenger expedition is renowned as the first to carry an official photographer, documenting the discoveries made during this groundbreaking journey. The Victorian-era building, with its intricate architectural details and weathered facade, stands proudly against the clear blue sky and tranquil waters of the Caribbean Sea. The Old Commissioners House, a symbol of colonial administration, adds a sense of history and tradition to the scene. The daytime image, taken from the outside, captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to the 19th century and the spirit of discovery that defined the Challenger expedition.
