Whaleboat Closing In

$600.00

“Whaleboat Closing In” black and white scrimshaw on ancient mammoth tusk ivory bark by Gerry Dupont. Suspenseful moment as the whaler approaches its prey. Will they arrive a bit too late, or will the harpooner make a successful throw? Will the whale win and crush the whaleboat?  Scrimshander Dupont has set the scene perfectly. It is up to the viewer to determine the outcome. Everyone sees something differently. Beautiful piece of mammoth ivory bark which deserves such a fine work by Dupont. Great value here, by the way.
