Captain F. E. Younghusband, King's Dragoon Guards, Gold Medallist, Royal Geographical Society, 1890. Engraving from a photograph by Messrs. Bourne and Shepherd, of Calcutta and Bombay. Of the two gold medals granted yearly by the Royal Geographical Society to distinguished recent explorers, one has been bestowed on Captain F. E. Younghusband, of the King's Dragoon Guards, who, three years ago, made his bold and adventurous journey from Pekin to the northern borders of India. This achievement was very creditable to a young officer barely twenty-four years of age, who, accompanied only by his servant, without escort, and without influence, struggled bravely along seven thousand miles of wild and semi-hostile regions, through the desert of Gobi, and over the summit of the Mustagh Pass, which had not previously been traversed'. Lieutenant Colonel Sir Francis Edward Younghusband (1863-1942) was a British Army officer, explorer and spiritual writer. He is remembered for his travels in the Far East and Central Asia; especially the 1904 British expedition to Tibet, led by him, and for his writings on Asia and foreign policy. Younghusband held positions including British commissioner to Tibet and president of the Royal Geographical Society. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
