EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Satellite sledge assigned to HMS 'Discovery' for Arctic exploration, complete with an ice saw in position. Dating back to around 1875, this wooden sledge was used on Nares' Arctic Expedition of the same year, supporting teams of five and eight men as they traversed the icy terrain. The intricate metalwork and leather detailing showcase the craftsmanship of the era, highlighting both functionality and durability.
The inclusion of the ice saw further emphasizes the challenges faced by explorers during this time period, as they navigated treacherous conditions in search of new discoveries. Measuring at 250x2050x820x16 kg for the sledge and 935x435x20 for the ice saw, these tools were essential for transportation and survival in extreme environments.
As we gaze upon this historical artifact from the National Maritime Museum in London, we are transported back to a time when brave individuals embarked on daring expeditions into uncharted territories. The image evokes a sense of adventure and resilience, reminding us of humanity's enduring quest for knowledge and exploration.
