PLATE XXIII. CAPE WADWORTH, COULMAN ISLAND. 



FIG. 1 (Map A). From a photograph by L. C. BERNACCHI (Be. 52, -plate), 

 Jan. 15, 1902 ; looking eastward. 



FIG. 2 (Map A). From a photograph by L C. BERNACCHI (Be. 50, ^-plate), 

 Jan. 15, 1902 ; looking S.-W. 



FIG. 3 (Map A). From a photograph by R W. SKELTON (S. 56, 5" x 4" plate), 

 Jan. 15, 1902; looking S.-W. 



These three photographs illustrate the same subject, Cape Wadworth, with 

 its piedmont-glacier, taken from opposite directions. 



In the case of Fig. 1, it is worth while making a comparison between this 

 and another photograph taken also by Mr Bernacchi two years before, and published 

 in his book, To the South Polar Regions 1 :, p. 237. Two other photographs of 

 this corner are given on page 241, and if only to indicate the want of change 

 in the aspect of the glacier ice, they are interesting to compare with our own. 



With the object of providing future expeditions with material for comparison, 

 the ice-tongues of Coulman Island have been given more than a fair share of 

 space in this collection. It may be hoped that more pictures of the same details 

 will be forthcoming for comparison with these in the future.
