EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Fredrik Hjalmar Johansen at Cafe Flora, circa 1893-1896. The image showcases the Norwegian explorer who played a significant role in the three-year expedition aboard the Fram, led by Fridtjof Nansen. Lieutenant Johansen, a reserve officer, is depicted standing outside the rustic log cabin cafe with snow-covered mountains as a backdrop. The photograph exudes an air of adventure and exploration as it transports us back to the late 19th century Arctic landscape. Clad in winter attire and holding skis, Johansen's direct gaze conveys determination and resilience amidst harsh conditions. The historical significance of this image lies not only in its portrayal of an intrepid explorer but also in its connection to literature. It originates from Farthest North, Vol. 2 by Fridtjof Nansen - a renowned account of their polar expedition published by Archibald Constable and Company in London during 1897. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of Norway's rich heritage of polar exploration and the courageous individuals who ventured into uncharted territories for scientific discovery. This print serves as both a visual testament to Johansen's contribution to the Fram expedition and an enduring symbol of human curiosity pushing boundaries beyond what was previously thought possible.
