EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Bernard Day on return from Barrier" we are transported back in time to December 21,1911. The image, captured by renowned photographer Herbert Ponting (1870-1935), is housed within the esteemed Scott Polar Research Institute at the University of Cambridge. The photograph belongs to a collection documenting the British Antarctic Expedition of 1910-13, which aimed to explore and conquer the uncharted territories of Antarctica. Bernard Day, an intrepid member of this historic expedition team, takes center stage in this particular snapshot. As we gaze upon the image, we witness Day's triumphant return from his arduous journey across the icy expanse known as "the Barrier". His face bears testament to both exhaustion and accomplishment. We can almost feel his relief as he steps foot on solid ground once again after enduring unimaginable hardships amidst unforgiving conditions. Ponting's masterful composition captures not only Day's physical presence but also conveys a sense of awe-inspiring vastness that surrounds him. The frozen landscape stretches endlessly into the distance, its pristine beauty contrasting with Day's weathered appearance. This print serves as a poignant reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit for exploration and discovery. It immortalizes a moment in history when brave individuals pushed beyond their limits in search of knowledge and adventure. Preserved within these walls at Scott Polar Research Institute, this remarkable piece invites us to reflect upon our own capacity for resilience and determination in facing life's challenges head-on. It reminds us that even amidst seemingly insurmountable obstacles, there exists an indomitable spirit that propels us forward into uncharted territories – both literal and metaphorical – just like Bernard Day did over a century ago.
