We welcome renowned arctic expert and historian Russell Potter to The Velaslavasay Panorama for two extraordinary evenings,  delving into the ephemeral evidence proving the profound influence of the exploration of the earth's arctic regions  upon the 19th century imagination, as well as the popular artistic and cultural landscapes.
