Early lifeGeorge Marston was born in Southsea (Portsmouth, England).[2] He studied art at Regent Street Polytechnic (now the University of Westminster). Nimrod expeditionDuring the Nimrod expedition, George helped to print the book Aurora Australis whilst stationed on Antarctica during the winter, contributing sketching and lithographs. Imperial Trans-Antarctic ExpeditionGeorge was one of the first members to sign up for this expedition, and one of the few to have worked alongside Shackleton before. While marooned on Elephant Island, some of Marston's oil paints were used to caulk the boat used by Shackleton to reach South Georgia.[3] Some watercolours and oil paintings by Marston of the expedition (many painted on return from sketches) are held at the Scott Polar Research Institute.[4] BurialMarston is buried in the cemetery of St Bartholomew's at East Lyng, Somerset, England.
