Colored pictures from an Atlas or Geography, showing the uses made of the products of the whale.
Colored lithograph with a beached whale and several figures commenting on it at center, and three small images above and three below. Clockwise from top left, the images are: (1) an oil lamp, (2) a lighthouse, with a ship at sea; (3) two umbrellas or parasols, one opened; (4) two barrels and two smaller vessels with handles; (5) three women huddled around a stove producing a large cloud of steam or smoke (their clothing suggests a date of 1840-1869); and (6) a whalebone corset.
