Product Description

No detail is left unturned in artist Jenness Cortez' oil on wood panel painting. Using inspiration from Nathaniel Currier's 1852 hand-colored lithograph  “The Whale Fishery ‘Laying On’”, W.L. Roderick's 1855 scrimshaw whale tooth, Joseph Oriel Eaton's 1870 portrait of Herman Melville, an American Folk Art Nantucket sperm whale nautical sailor whirligig and a 1827 clipping from the Nantucket Inquirer, the artist captures New England's island history and charm.
