EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a Stuffed Emperor Penguin model from 1901-04, showcasing the intricate details of the bird's skin and feathers. The majestic male Emperor penguin is mounted on a green board within a glass case, with two blue paper labels at its feet revealing its fascinating history.
The inscription on the labels states that this particular Emperor penguin was caught during Captain Scott's Antarctic Expedition in Discovery from 1901-4 and was later presented by the Captain, Officers, and Cadets of HMS Worcester in 1950. This piece serves as a tangible connection to an important moment in exploration history.
Edward Adrian Wilson, known for his contributions to natural sciences and exploration, created this taxidermy masterpiece with precision and care. The lifelike appearance of the stuffed penguin showcases Wilson's attention to detail and dedication to preserving these incredible creatures for future generations to admire.
Displayed at the National Maritime Museum in London, UK, this photograph not only captures the beauty of nature but also serves as a reminder of humanity's curiosity and determination to explore even the most remote corners of our planet. It stands as a testament to both scientific discovery and artistic craftsmanship.
