Art of Exploration @ Discovery Point Cafe Gallery
On loan from the Scott Polar Research Institute, this exhibition features high quality framed reproductions of Sir Wally Herbert's stunning paintings. His pictures reflect not only the beauty of the polar landscape, but also the men who travelled through it.
Perhaps Sir Wally's greatest achievement during the course of his 50 year polar career was the British Trans-Arctic Expedition in 1968-69, an epic 16 month 3,800 mile trek. This first surface crossing of the Arctic Ocean is not regarded by most historians as the last great journey on Earth.
The exhibition also features amazing objects such as Sir Wally's pocket sextant and compass and his painting gear. There is also some of his clothing (polar bear skin trousers and reindeer parka with hood and goggles) plus the original sledge from 1969. Admission is free.
