No. 3 "Locked In" Sir Ernest Shackleton Imperial Antarctic Expedition 1914-1917: order A Painted History by Adam Koltz - Choose Loose or Framed

CHRISTMAS IS COMING FAST... ORDER SOON

On January 18, 1915, Endurance becomes locked fast in the ice, only a day's sail from the expedition's intended goal. For the next ten months, the ship drifts northward with the ice, until finally crushed by the inexorable pressure of the shifting pack. On November 21, 1915 she sinks, and for the next few months the crew makes camp on the ever-shrinking ice floes.

Marine artist and 20 year Navy veteran Adam Koltz has served aboard several classes of ships, including merchant vessels. His earliest memories include drawing ships and birds, and his attention to detail stems from his intimate knowledge of the wind-water relationships that give his images life and vitality. Adam first became fascinated with the story of Ernest Shackleton's 1914 Antarctic expedition in 2008 during the increased public awareness leading up to the 100th anniversary of the explorer's journey. He was so taken with the story that he spent the next 2 years composing this extraodinary pictorial essay as a tribute to a man he came to admire so much. Seven images tell the tale of the 3-year ordeal like no text ever could.

His prints make special gifts for History Buffs, Boating Enthusiasts, Promotions, Retirements, Spouses and Special Friends.
