The North-West Passage, 1874, (1901). Creator: Unknown
The North-West Passage, 1874, (1901). An old seaman looks thoughtful as he considers the danger of an expedition to find the sea route round North America via the Canadian Arctic. Many such expeditions had ended in failure and death. His daughter reads from a log book as she holds his hand. On the table is a map, behind him hangs the portrait of a ships commander, and flags lean against the wall: evidence of his seafaring days. After the 1874 painting by John Everett Millais, in the Tate Gallery, London. From " The Illustrated London News Record of the Glorious Reign of Queen Victoria 1837-1901: The Life and Accession of King Edward VII. and the Life of Queen Alexandra". [London, 1901]
