Still Life, Inside the Antarctic Huts of Scott and Shackleton

Still Life, Inside the Antarctic Huts of Scott and Shackleton

by Jane Ussher (Photographer)

  • EXPLORATION
  • 2012
  • HARD COVER
  • 224 PAGES

A project of New Zeland photographer Ussher and the Antarctic Heritage Trust, the hundreds of rich color photographs in this handsome book capture the haunting beauty of the historic huts at Hut Point, Cape Evans and Cape Royds. Ussher shows, for example, a wall with a portrait of King Edward VII hanging amid seal blubber, sides of mutton, a jar of gherkins, penguin eggs, cufflinks, and darned trousers.  (ANT361, $50.00)
