I chose the painting by Mark Milloff, “Stripping the Whale”. This painting caught my attention because of its barbaric nature. Mark Milloff got his inspiration for this painting from chapter 62, “Cutting In”. This chapter describes the state in which the Pequod and her crew are in while they begin to process whales. The name of the painting, “Stripping the Whale” is very similar to the title of the chapter, “Cutting In”. The painting depicts the savage nature in which the crew of the Pequod kill whales and process them.
