Renard (1888, pl. 13) Beschrijving: From a sketch by Mr.
Buchanan, representing the mountainous promontory forming the
north-western end of the island. The top of the mountain was
enveloped in cloud, below which the greater part of its sides
were covered by a glacier descending to the edge of the
precipitous rock cliffs, over which the ice-masses fell
thundering. The sketch was taken from the shoulder of a red
conical hill, against which the ice, descending from the main
mountain of the island to the sea, splits and passes on both
sides of it. Plaats: Heard Island Auteur: Buchanan in Renard
