A Photographic Odyssey: Shackleton's endurance expedition
About
Presented by Mark Cottle (UK)On Ernest Shackleton's third Antarctic expedition in 1914, his ship, the Endurance, was trapped, eventually crushed in pack ice. After five months on the ice, the ship's company rowed to remote Elephant Island. Shockleton then sailed with five companions over 800 miles to South Georgia, returning over three months later to rescue his stranded crew. Australian Frank Hurley was the expedition's official photographer. His images capture with great artistry the amazing landscape within which this remarkable human drama unfolded. This lecture illustrates Hueley's great talent behind the lens, in the first flush of human contact with the Antarctic remained essentially 'terra incognita'.
