Will imagining old victorian men helping me through finals actually help me? Don't think so. But I won't lie, it sure is comforting..

The framing narrative of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Robert Walton's search for the north magnegic pole, is set sometime in the latter half of the 18th century. The pole, which was eventually found in 1831, shifts over time, but until the 1990s it was isolated within the Canadian archipelago
Walton gave up the expedition and turned back before they found the pole, so it's safe to assume his ship was east of Victoria Island, probably near Boothia Peninsula (the red dots marked 1831 and 1904).
This is the exact location the Terror and Erebus would later become stranded during the lost Franklin expedition of 1845.
The exact year of Walton's story is never specified, but Mary Shelley wrote it in 1816 and probably intended it to be set in the recent past, so lets say 1780s or 1790s, 50 or 60 years before Franklin's crew became trapped in the ice. Frankenstein's monster is inhumanly large and inhumanly strong, so there's no reason to believe he wouldn't also have an inhumanly long lifespan (and hey, he was just created, maybe his internal clock still says he's a baby, so 50 or 60 years isn't even that old).
What I'm saying is, instead of self-immolating in Victor's funeral pyre, maybe Adam continued to wander the Arctic, and eventually settled in an Inuit village. He can fish, he can hunt, he can ward off polar bears, he would be a welcome addition to the isolated community, and when the Terror happens, let's just say Captain Crozier is surprised to meet someone out on the ice who can speak English, especially a hulking 8-foot mass of a man.

I absolutely love your The Terror oil paintings, and I was wondering if you could do a painting or perhaps just a drawing of Captain Crozier?
Thank you shane!! this will certainly be first of many
