Ivan ZavadskyBorn in 1780 near Hadyach in Poltava Oblast. He was a circumnavigator and polar explorer, cartographer, hydrographer, and collector of natural history collections.
During 1819–1821, he served as deputy captain on the warship Vostok (Russian: Шкхид), which made a circumnavigation of the Southern Ocean in search of a route to the South Pole. This expedition was one of the first to discover Antarctica and the islands near it: the South Sandwich Islands, Alexander I, and Peter I. Since the days of Soviet historiography, Ivan Zavadovsky has been called a Russian, as has Lysyansky.

One volcanic island was named in honor of Zavadovsky. In 2016, the government of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands printed four postage stamps "Zavadovsky Island". Another island in the Western Ice Shelf near Antarctica was also named after him. In Oleksandr Dovzhenko's film story "Antarctica", Ivan Zavadovsky is one of the main characters. /667x1000/2965ea9b-c182-49a9-965b-2f779ac24a38-sofia-yablonska-hd-2.webp)
