EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time from John Franklin's "Narrative of a journey to the shores of the Polar sea in the years 1819-1821". In this image, we see an Indian Guide holding a racket, showcasing his expertise and skill. The guide stands proudly against a backdrop of snow-covered terrain, symbolizing both the harshness and beauty of the polar region. The British School artist who created this piece perfectly portrays the native population's resilience and adaptability to their environment. The Indian Guide's casual stance suggests his familiarity with these surroundings, as if he has spent countless hours traversing through icy landscapes. Through this photograph, we are transported back to an era where civilization was yet to fully explore and understand the mysteries hidden within these remote lands. It serves as a reminder of our innate curiosity and desire for exploration that drives us forward even in challenging conditions. Leonard de Selva's expert photography skills bring out every intricate detail, allowing us to appreciate not only the subject but also the artistry behind capturing such moments. This print is truly a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance amidst nature's harshest elements. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of our collective history and how it continues to shape our present-day understanding of cultures past.
