EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this stunning engraving of whale ships at New Bedford wharf from the 19th century. The intricate details captured in this print transport you to a bustling port filled with majestic vessels ready to set sail on daring expeditions.

The humpback whales depicted alongside the ships serve as a reminder of the dangerous yet lucrative nature of whaling during this period. These marine mammals were both feared and revered for their valuable resources, making them prime targets for hunters seeking fortune on the high seas.
This engraving is not just a piece of art but a window into history, showcasing the craftsmanship and skill required to navigate treacherous waters in pursuit of elusive prey. It captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to appreciate the bravery and determination of those who sailed these mighty vessels into unknown territories.
