Top: Francis Crozier, courtesy National Maritime Museum; bottom: Starvation Cove, painted by Arctic explorer Julius Payer, courtesy Geophysical Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic and the National Gallery, Prague. The painting depicts the pitiful remnants of Crozier’s party. Crozier is shown at the top, clutching a gun and preparing to repel a polar bear attack. Dead and dying colleagues lie at his feet, supporting the legend that Crozier was among the expedition’s last survivors.
