Summary

Description
English: Photographed labled "one of the boats crew" and shows a Tongan seaman standing on the deck of an unidentified ship. Photographs taken, probably by Corporal C Newbold, between 19 and 22 July 1874. The Voyage of H.M.S. Challenger (1872-1876) was funded by the British Government for scientific purposes and seems to have been the first expedition to carry an official photographer as well as an official artist.
