'The Dep?t Laying and Western Parties on Their Return to Cape Evans (Left to right - Taylor, Wright, Evans, Bowers, Scott, Debenham, Gran, P.O. Evans, Crean)', 13 April 1911, (1913). Captain Scott and group taken on return of Southern Party: geologist Thomas Griffith Taylor, physicist Charles Seymour Wright, Lieutenant Edward Evans (Captain of the Terra Nova), Lieutenant Henry Bowers, Expedition leader Robert F Scott, geologist Frank Debenham, ski expert Tryggve Gran, petty officer Edgar Evans, petty officer Tom Crean. The final expedition of British Antarctic explorer Captain Robert Falcon Scott (1868-1912) left London on 1 June 1910 bound for the South Pole. The Terra Nova Expedition, officially the British Antarctic Expedition (1910-1913), included a geologist, a zoologist, a surgeon, a photographer, an engineer, a ski expert, a meteorologist and a physicist among others. Scott wished to continue the scientific work that he had begun when leading the Discovery Expedition to the Antarctic in 1901-04. He also wanted to be the first to reach the geographic South Pole. Scott, accompanied by Dr Edward Wilson, Captain Lawrence Oates, Lieutenant Henry Bowers and Petty Officer Edgar Evans, reached the Pole on 17 January 1912, only to find that the Norwegian expedition under Amundsen had beaten them to their objective by a month. Delayed by blizzards, and running out of supplies, Scott and the remainder of his team died at the end of March. Their bodies and diaries were found eight months later. From Scott's Last Expedition, Volume I. [Smith, Elder & Co., London, 1913]
