Frank Hurley, the official photographer onboard the Endurance (under the command of Ernest Shackleton), took color photographs during the 1914-1917 expedition. Fortunately, he was able to save some of these negatives before the Endurance sank. Here is a selection of his color photographs from the voyage of the Endurance.
