Transferring of Cargo along the Shore, 1889. Creator: Unknown
Transferring of Cargo along the Shore, 1889. From a collection consisting of an album and individual photographs that document the Arctic voyage in 1889 of the clipper ship Razboinik (Pirate) and construction of the settlement of Novo-Mariinskii (present-day Anadyr') on the Bering Sea in northeastern Russia. The unique binding, date of acquisition, and inventory number of the album suggest that it belonged to the photograph collection of Emperor Nicholas II. The album contains photographs of the local Chukchi people and views of the harbor Petropavlovsk, the village of Nikol'skoe on Bering Island, and Novo-Mariinskii, where construction of the first building is shown.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Transferring of Cargo along the Shore, 1889," offers a fascinating glimpse into an Arctic voyage that took place in northeastern Russia during the late 19th century. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but its historical significance is undeniable.
The photograph is part of a collection documenting the expedition of the clipper ship Razboinik (Pirate) and the construction of Novo-Mariinskii settlement on Bering Sea. Its unique binding and acquisition details suggest it once belonged to Emperor Nicholas II's personal photograph collection.
In this particular scene captured by an anonymous lens, we witness a group of men engaged in unloading building materials from a ship onto the rugged shore. Their faces reveal determination as they work together to transfer timber planks, symbolizing progress amidst challenging frontier conditions.
