The renowned Scottish artist Dame Barbara Rae RSA RA has long been fascinated by the polar regions. Published to accompany Charting South, this sumptuous volume reproduces a host of new works made on Rae’s recent voyages to Antarctica. There she traced the journeys of the explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton during the ill-fated Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1914–17), visiting such remote locations as South Georgia and Elephant Island.
