Lot 98
A well presented 1:20 scale waterline model of H.M.S. Erebus as abandoned in the Arctic during Sir John Franklin's ill-fated expedition to discover the Northwest Passage of 1845-47 modelled by R.A. Wilson with carved hull, masts and rigging encrusted with snow and ice, set within a frozen seascape with ice flows rising against the hull, mounted within a glazed wooden case with plaques 6¾ x 15 x 7in. (17 x 38 x 18cm.) Carry case; historical notes. Although 65 when he agreed to lead this expedition, Sir John Franklin (1786-1847), a veteran of Trafalgar, was considered the ideal choice having lead previous expeditions by land and sea. Erebus, in company with the nearly identical Terror, was provisioned for three years, including 8,000 tins of meat. Beleaguered by ice in the Victoria Strait in 1846, Franklin died on June 11 1847. The 105 survivors attempted to walk to safety but succumbed to starvation, scurvy and lead poisoning from the tinned food. Subsequent expeditions proved that Franklin had in fact discovered the Northwest Passage, and evidence of the incredible hardships suffered by the crew was confirmed.
