Photographs by Herbert Ponting

The Freeze Frame website presents an online catalogue of over 20,000 images from the historic negative collections at the Scott Polar Research Institute. The negatives cover expeditions into the Arctic and Antarctic during the period 1845-1982 and representing some of the most important visual resources for research into British and international polar exploration. These images are presented with ancillary material from the collections of the Institute, and critical essays contextualising much of the material.\ud \ud This resource features a selection of images arranged around the theme of photographs by Herbert Ponting
