The story
On 14 December 1911 the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen and four companions became the first people to reach the South Pole. They traveled on skis with dog sleds, having planned every depot and every mile of the route, and arrived about five weeks before the British party led by Robert Falcon Scott. Amundsen's team planted the Norwegian flag at 90 degrees south and came home safely; Scott and his men died on the return march.
This design looks at the race from directly above, the way a drone would see it today. A thin line of skiers with their sleds crosses an endless white plateau, each figure trailed by a long blue shadow from the low polar sun, with a small flag marking the trail behind them. Tiny people, enormous ice, and the patience to keep going.
