EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Whale Fishery, Laying On" takes us back to the year 1852 and immerses us in the thrilling world of American whaling. Created by renowned artist Nathaniel Currier, this print showcases a dramatic scene filled with action and adventure. In the foreground, we see a massive whale being hunted by a group of courageous men on rowboats. The sheer size and power of the creature are evident as it breaches the water's surface, its majestic tail soaring high above. The men skillfully maneuver their boats around the whale, armed with harpoons ready to strike at just the right moment. The setting is an expansive marine landscape that stretches out into the distance. The sea is alive with activity - other whalers can be seen in various stages of pursuit nearby. This bustling scene gives us a glimpse into America's thriving maritime industry during this era. Currier's attention to detail brings this lithograph to life; every ripple in the water and every muscle on both man and beast is meticulously rendered. It captures not only a specific moment but also conveys a sense of excitement and danger that must have accompanied these daring hunts. "WHALE FISHERY, LAYING ON" serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation of an important chapter in American history - one where brave souls ventured far from home in search of fortune amidst treacherous waters.
