Scrimshaw: Walrus Tusk, 1941, by Oscar Bluhme Description: This stunning piece of scrimshaw art, created by Oscar Bluhme in 1941, showcases the intricate detail and beauty of this traditional American craft. The walrus tusk, engraved with watercolor, graphite, and pen and ink on paper, depicts a lively and dynamic scene of a walrus family in their natural habitat. The walrus father is shown proudly displaying his tusks and gazing at his young offspring, while the mother walrus keeps a protective eye on her brood. The intricate engravings on the tusk are further enhanced by the use of watercolor, adding vibrant colors and depth to the artwork. Oscar Bluhme was a renowned scrimshander, active during the 1930s and 1940s in the United States. Scrimshaw is a decorative art form that originated on whaling ships, where sailors would pass the time by engraving designs on whalebone, ivory, or other materials. Bluhme's work is highly sought after for its intricate designs, attention to detail, and masterful use of color. This scrimshaw piece is a testament to the rich maritime heritage of America and the artistic creativity that emerged from the seafaring tradition. It is a period item from the 20th century, specifically the 1930s and 1940s, and is an excellent addition to any collection of decorative arts, nautical art, or American heritage art. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., holds this piece in its Index of American Design, further attesting to its historical and artistic significance.
