Beschreibung

Ponting Copyright' blind-stamp lower right, on original board, Fine Art Society printed label (with title caption and exhibition number '118' in pencil) on verso, 740 x 540mm., [5 January 1911] Footnotes: One of the most celebrated images by Ponting. 'This unique study was made from the heart of an iceberg. The grotto was formed by a berg as it turned over, carrying a large floe up with it, which froze on to it, leaving this beautiful cavern, through which it was possible to walk for over a hundred feet. By good fortune, at the time the artist reached this spot, the Terra Nova could be seen in the distance...' (Fine Art Society, The British Antarctic Expedition 1910-1913.
