The island
Zemlya Georga, or George Land, is the largest island of Franz Josef Land, the Russian Arctic archipelago north of Novaya Zemlya. It lies on the western side of the group. From above it is a large, irregular landmass, much of it under an ice cap. Glacier tongues reach the sea, and bays and headlands break up the coastline.
At around 80 degrees north, the island goes through months of polar night, and sea ice surrounds it for much of the year. There are no towns or roads. Where the edges are free of ice, the ground is stony and bare, and walrus, seabirds and polar bears use it rather than people.
An Austro-Hungarian expedition reached Franz Josef Land in the 1870s and named it after the emperor. It is now part of the Russian Arctic National Park. A Zemlya Georga map poster shows a landscape shaped entirely by ice and water, drawn in clean lines that suit the high latitude.
Much of the island lies under glacial ice. On the map the interior is broad and smooth, with few features apart from the edges of the ice.
Where the ice meets the sea, glacier tongues push out into the bays. The result is a coastline of ice fronts and inlets that can shift from one survey to the next.
Narrow straits separate George Land from its neighbours in the archipelago, so the map shows it within a pattern of sounds and smaller islands.
