Dr John Rae the arctic explorer limited edition prints

I have always been fascinated by Dr John Rae the artic explorer who was born at Clestrain in Stenness, Orkney. He trained at an early age as a surgeon and went on to join the Hudson's Bay Company in Canada along with many other Orcadians. He is famous for discovering The North West Passage and the fate of Dr John Franklin's ship and crew. This collection includes several paintings telling his story and of the area in Orkney where he was born. 

I hope you enjoy them!
