512px-Scott_of_the_Antarctic_crop

A sepia-toned portrait of a man in a formal military uniform with epaulettes, medals, and a high collar. He has short hair and a serious expression, facing slightly to the right—evoking early Antarctic explorers bound for the South Pole.

Crop of Robert Falcon Scott in full regalia: this was reproduced as a frontispiece for Scott’s The Voyage of the Discovery (London 1905). By Henry Maull (1829–1914) and John Fox (1832–1907) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons
