Colored lithograph of an Arctic scene with three rowboats surrounding a whale. A man on the nearest rowboat strikes the whale, which is spouting, with a harpoon. In the distance is another rowboat, a large three-masted ship, and two flocks of seabirds. Below the image is the text, " Drawn on Stone by J.D. Harding." "Printed by C. Hullmandel." "STRIKING A WHALE WITH THIRD HARPOON." and below, "London. Pub. by G. & W.B. Whittaker. Ave Maria Lane."
