Framed Print of Matthew Henson, US explorer
Matthew Alexander Henson (1866-1955), US explorer, wearing fur clothing on a ship with snow shoes and a husky dog. Henson accompanied Robert Peary (1856-1920) on his expedition to the North Pole (1909). Henson learnt the local Inuit languages and fathered a son with an Inuit woman. Henson was the grandson of Josiah Henson, a famous runaway slave and author. Matthew Henson wrote A Negro Explorer at the North Pole (1912) and a biography Dark Companion (1947). Photographed on the ship Roosevelt on arrival at Sidney, Nova Scotia, Canada, during an earlier expedition with Peary from 1905 to 1906.
