"The Racehorse and Carcass Forcing Through the Ice" is a notable painting by the 18th-century British artist John Cleveley the Younger. This artwork captures a dramatic moment from the 1773 Phipps expedition towards the North Pole, led by Constantine Phipps aboard the HMS Racehorse and HMS Carcass. The painting is significant for its historical depiction of the exploration and the challenges faced by the crew in the treacherous Arctic environment.

John Cleveley the Younger, known for his marine art, was not a participant in the voyage but was inspired by the accounts and possibly by sketches or descriptions from the crew members. His work is characterized by attention to detail and a keen sense of the dramatic, both of which are evident in this painting. The scene vividly portrays the two ships as they navigate and force their way through the dense pack ice, highlighting the perils of maritime exploration during the era.

It is an important piece for historians and art enthusiasts alike, offering insight into the 18th-century naval expeditions, the artistry of the period, and the public's fascination with the exploration of the unknown.

"The Racehorse and Carcass Forcing Through the Ice" remains an exemplary piece within John Cleveley the Younger's oeuvre and continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and artistic merit. The painting is a testament to the enduring legacy of maritime exploration and the power of art to capture and communicate the human experience.
