Douglas Mawson, Australasian Antarctic Expedition on the ship Aurora, 1911 - 1914.
Interior kitchen area of the hut. Heroic Age huts are always very full of things and people. Wooden construction made it easy to attach extra storage made from packing cases even sometimes being used to build internal walls and basic furniture. They look like the kind of den I'd have made as a kid if I could!
