"The Last Voyage of Henry Hudson" is a painting by the British artist John Maler Collier, created in 1881. It depicts the tragic fate of the English sea explorer and navigator Henry Hudson, who is best known for his attempts to find a northerly route to Asia, and for his explorations of what would become known as the Hudson River and Hudson Bay. The painting is a work of historical drama, capturing the moment when Hudson, along with his son and other loyal crew members, were set adrift in a small open boat by mutineers during his final expedition in search of the Northwest Passage in 1611.

Collier was a leading artist of his time, known for his portraits and subject paintings. He was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and was associated with the leading intellectuals and writers of his day. "The Last Voyage of Henry Hudson" is a testament to Collier's skill in narrative painting, his attention to historical detail, and his ability to convey intense emotion and human drama.

The painting is characterized by its somber mood and the stark contrast between the vulnerability of the abandoned party and the vast, unforgiving landscape of the Arctic. Collier's use of light and shadow, as well as his meticulous rendering of the figures and the icy environment, contribute to the overall impact of the scene. The work reflects the Victorian fascination with heroic failure and the sublime power of nature, themes that were popular in the art and literature of the period.

"The Last Voyage of Henry Hudson" is held in a public collection and has been exhibited in various art galleries and museums. It is considered an important work in Collier's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its historical significance and artistic merit. The painting serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of exploration and the relentless pursuit of knowledge and discovery.
