More Info
He gained prominence at various points in his life as an explorer, scientist, diplomat and humanitarian.

He led the team that made the first crossing of the
Greenland interior in 1888, traversing the island on cross-country skis.

He won international fame after reaching a record northern latitude of 86°14′ during his
Fram expedition of 1893—1896.
