The Last Voyage of Henry Hudson is an oil-on-canvas painting by English artist John Collier, created in 1881.

It is unknown what happened to Hudson, his son and his men after this, but its presumed that they eventually died of cold or starvation.

[3] Collier depicts Hudson, dressed in black and with a grey beard, at the rudder of his ship, staring eerily while holding the hand of his son, who is at his feet.

The vast, desolated Arctic landscape, with an iceberg and a snow covered mountain visible to the left, serves as the background to the human drama that has unfolded.

The painting drew the attention of his contemporary viewers to the ongoing Arctic explorations in the 19th century, including other attempts to find the Northwest Passage.
