Framed Print of The Crew of the Pandora Recovering Mail from the Cairn on
Engraving showing the crew of the ship Pandora recovering mail, left by the British Arctic Expedition of 1875, from the cairn on top of Carey Island. In this way, the Pandora acted as postal carrier between the expedition and the Admiralty of Great Britain. In the summer of 1875 the British Admiralty sent Captain George Nares with the ships, HMS Alert and HMS Discovery, as the British Arctic Expedition, to make an attempt to reach the North Pole via Smith Sound. Although the attempt was unsuccessful, a new furthest North record was set, the coasts of Greenland and Ellesmere Island were charted and much scientific data gathered. Mary Evans Picture Library makes available wonderful images created for people to enjoy over the centuries. © Illustrated London News Ltd/Mary Evans
