To mark a hundred years since the first expedition to Mount Everest, a landmark exhibition is being held in Shoreditch.
The Alpine Club is commemorating some of the first expeditions to attempt the highest peak on planet earth in the 1920s, well before Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary became the first explorers to reach the mountain s summit, 29,035 feet above sea level, in 1953.
The exhibition uses the words of expedition members from 1921, 1922 and 1924 and includes diary entries, hand-written notes, art works and photographs produced on Everest.
