This exhibition of Antarctic photography by Herbert George Ponting and Frank Hurley marks the 100th anniversary of Captain Scottís ill-fated journey to the South Pole. Ponting's extraordinary images record Scott's Terra Nova expedition of 1910-13, which led to the tragic death of five of the team on their return from the South Pole. Hurleyís dramatic icescapes were taken during Ernest Shackletonís Polar expedition on Endurance in 1914-16, which ended with the heroic sea journey from Elephant Island to South Georgia. Presented to King George V and today part of the Royal Photograph Collection, these sets of photographs are among the finest examples of the artists' works in existence.
