Description

Approx. 28x22,5 cm

History: Commander Ferdinand Krokisius was between 1883-1886 commander of the corvette “Marie” which had then recently been built for the German Navy. In the spring of 1883, the ship follows the east coast of South America, and further south it picks up the members of the German Polar Expedition, which in the first international polar year 1882-1883 was on South Georgia. In the logbook there is an original photograph of the expedition members and some autographs on the back. For the feat, the captain receives a mountain in South Georgia named after him “Mount Krokisius”. Later that year Marie arrives in New Guinea where this ship and other German ones guard German colonial interests. During this part of the trip, Krokisius collects ethnographic objects, most of which are included in this theme auction. The trip eventually continues to Samoa and Australia to finally be back in Germany in February 1886.
