EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to the year 1890, where a dramatic scene unfolds on the open seas. A massive whale is seen struggling against a steamship, its powerful tail thrashing as it tries to break free from the ropes that bind it. The sheer size and strength of the majestic creature are evident in this moment captured in time.
The image highlights a dark chapter in maritime history - whaling. It serves as a stark reminder of humanity's exploitation of marine life for profit and resources. The sight of the captured whale evokes feelings of sadness and empathy for these magnificent creatures who were once hunted mercilessly.
Despite the intense struggle depicted in this photograph, there is also an undeniable sense of awe at witnessing such a rare and historic event. The spout of water shooting out from the whale's blowhole adds to the overall sense of urgency and tension in this gripping scene.
Mary Evans Prints Online has preserved this important piece of history, allowing viewers to reflect on our relationship with marine life and consider how far we have come since those days when whales were viewed merely as commodities rather than living beings deserving respect and protection.
