YOUNG, Sir Allen William -- 'APE' [i.e. Carlo PELLEGRINI] (artist). Alleno. [London:] Vincent Brookes, Day and Son for Vanity Fair, 15 December 1877.

A full-length lithographic portrait of Young after Pellegrini, from the 'Men of the Day' series (no. 167), image size 310 x 184mm; very good, mounted, with a photocopy of the original text to the verso.

A portrait of the Arctic explorer Sir Allen Young, shortly after he was knighted for his services to Arctic exploration. Allen served as the navigating officer of the Fox under Sir Leopold M'Clintock in 1857, during its expedition to follow through John Rae's discoveries relating to Franklin's fate: 'During the two years spent in following Franklin's tracks, Young made notable sledge journeys, exploring about 380 miles of new coast line, including the southern and western coasts of Prince of Wales Land and both shores of Franklin Strait. He also discovered McClintock Channel, but was unable to cross its rough ice. In 1860 he had command of the Fox in the north Atlantic telegraph expedition, which surveyed a telegraph route between Europe and America via the Faeroes, Iceland, and Greenland. He visited the east coast of Greenland, but, believing it to be impracticable for a cable route, did not land. He sailed on for the west coast, landed with Rae (who was in charge of the land part of the expedition), and ascended to the ice cap near Julianehåb; but he returned on deciding that a telegraph line could not be carried across Greenland' (ODNB). Young later travelled to Baffin Bay in support of Sir George Nares' 1875-1876 Arctic expedition and returned the following year, when 'in spite of great difficulties [he] landed dispatches for Nares at Cape Isabella and Littleton Island' (op. cit.); for his services to Nares' expedition, Young was knighted in 1877, shortly before this portrait was executed. Young's last Arctic expedition was in June 1882, when 'he commanded the whaler Hope, chartered with government help, in order to search for the explorer, Benjamin Leigh Smith, who had sailed for Franz Josef Land in July of the previous year. Nares and Young were instrumental in launching the relief expedition and in August 1882 the Hope found Leigh Smith and his party at Matochkin Shar, on the west coast of Novaya Zemlya, which they had reached in boats after the destruction of their vessel off Franz Josef Land' (op. cit.).

It’s a YES from me!
Color: B-brown
I absolutely love this purse. And I’m so heartbroken because something got spilled inside of it and it affects the functionality of the person on the inside and it makes me so sad but I still use it anyway because there’s one side I can use completely and half a side I can use on the other side lol. It is very good quality. The storage is A+. It is definitely a good value for the price. I was skeptical at first as we all are ordering a purse off Amazon, that is not real leather, but it’s supposed to be good quality. It didn’t really have much of a smell. I actually don’t use the strap provided since I seen that the straps could be interchangeable, I used my strap off my previous purse instead, and now I love it love it! 😍 I get compliments on it all the time!

surprised me
I absolutely love this shoulder bag! The quality really surprised me and in a good way. The faux leather has such a smooth, polished look and feels soft but still very durable. It honestly gives that high-end vibe without the expensive price tag. The size is perfect for everyday use. It’s roomy enough to fit all my essentials like my phone, wallet, keys, and even some extra items like makeup, but it doesn’t feel bulky or oversized. I also really appreciate the inner pockets because they help keep everything organized instead of just throwing everything into one big space. Another thing I love is how practical it is. The material is water-resistant, which is a huge plus and if anything spills or it gets a little wet, it’s super easy to just wipe clean. It still looks brand new after using it regularly. The design is simple but very stylish, which makes it easy to pair with almost any outfit. I’ve worn it casually, out running errands, and even with more dressed-up looks, and it always works. It’s definitely one of those go-to bags you can grab every day. This bag is a great mix of style, functionality, and durability. I’m really impressed with it and would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a cute, everyday handbag!

Perfect Everyday Bag That Goes with Everything
This purse is everything! I love the size, the material, and the fact that it has the perfect amount of compartments to keep everything organized without feeling bulky. It’s officially become my everyday bag. The strap is the perfect length and feels really sturdy. It’s cute enough for casual days but also works for going out to dinner, which I love. I’m always looking for something versatile since I don’t like switching bags all the time, and this one checks all the boxes. The zipper is smooth and feels durable, not flimsy at all. Overall, it feels well made, looks great, and holds up to daily use. Definitely a great find!
