Framed Print of The American Franklin Search Expedition - Starvation Cove, 1881. Creator: Unknown
The American Franklin Search Expedition - Starvation Cove, 1881. We continue from last week the publication of a series of Illustrations, furnished by the Sketches of Mr. H. W. Klutschak, a Bohemian artist, who accompanied, during nearly a twelvemonth of 1879 and 1880, the overland sledge expedition fitted out by the New York Geographical Society, and commanded by Lieutenant Frederick Schwatka, a cavalry officer of the United States Federal Army, from the northern shore of Hudson's Bay to Simpson's Strait, and thence to the north-western coast of King William's Land. This expedition was in search of any relics or documents of the fate of Sir John Franklin's party, the officers and crew of H.M.S. Erebus and Terror, lost in that region above thirty years ago'. In 1839 the Adelaide Peninsula in Nunavut, Canada, was reached from the west by Peter Warren Dease and Thomas Simpson. Starvation Cove, on the northern tip of the peninsula, was the southernmost point any of the doomed survivors from Franklin's lost expedition of 1845-48 are known to have reached on their march south to find help. From "Illustrated London News", 1881. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
