A photograph of Dr. Edward Wilson, looking at the camera, Lt. Bowers, looking at the contents of the raised enamel mug in his right had, and Apsley Cherry-Garrard, looking at the camera, seated at the table in the expedition hut. The table is laid with two enamelled jugs, mugs and open jars of jam, including apricot, and slices of bread.

Cherry-Garrard wrote about the experience in his book 'The Worst Journey in the World.' Scott recalled in his journal 'They looked more weather-worn than anyone I have yet seen.
