(Fine Art Society Exhibition, No. 25). 'During those midnight days, when others slept and only the night watch and I were awake, some of the most memorable of my Antarctic experiences befell me.

One of these was 'The Death of an Iceberg' [alternative title to our image]-- which represents a berg in the last stage of decay, from the action of the sun and currents' (H.G.
