Summary

Description	In February 1899, Borchgrevink's party of Southern Cross Expedition landed at Cape Adare - the northeastern most peninsula in Victoria Land, East Antarctica,where they built a prefabricated hut (the first human structure ever built on the Antarctic continent). They wintered at Cape Adare and were picked up in January of 1890 by Southern Cross ship. At the image you could see a drawing above Kolbein Ellefsen's bed in Borchgrevink's Cape Adare Hut. Ellefsen was one of the members of the Southern Cross Expedition. He was a good sailor and also the Cook on the expedition and a talented artist. While looking at the image, please, try to imagine a young man (Kolbein Ellefsen was in his yearly twenties) during unforgiving polar night, not knowing what's going to happened next (one of the expedition members did not make it), who used a kerosene lamp or a candle with its ghostly light to draw portrait of a beautiful woman above his bed. The image was taken in January of 2001.
