EDITORS COMMENTS
The 19th century lithograph "CURRIER & IVES: WHALING" captures the adventurous spirit and dangerous work of American whalers during this era. The print showcases a scene from a whale hunt, with African American men playing an integral role in the maritime industry. In the image, we see a rowboat filled with determined sailors navigating through rough ocean waters. Each man is armed with a harpoon, ready to face the mighty whale that emerges from beneath the waves. The ship they have set out from can be seen in the distance, its steam billowing into the sky. The artist skillfully depicts the power and grace of these magnificent creatures as one breaches nearby, releasing a majestic spout of water into the air. The intensity of their pursuit is palpable as they row towards their target amidst crashing waves and gusty winds. This lithograph not only celebrates the bravery and strength of these whalers but also highlights their diverse backgrounds. By including African American men among them, it acknowledges their significant contributions to this demanding profession. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand both the perilous nature of whaling and its impact on America's history. It serves as a reminder of our nation's deep connection to maritime industries and honors those who risked everything for their livelihoods on treacherous seas.
