The Art of Scrimshaw - Nantucket Decorative Arts

Описание к видео The Art of Scrimshaw - Nantucket Decorative Arts

1800 House veteran and artist Mary Lacoursiere, NHA Peter M. and Bonnie J. Sacerdote Chair of Education and Community Relations, describes the traditional process of creating scrimshaw, the delicate art form made famous by men at sea as a pastime during long whaling voyages, and how it is done today.

Nantucket Historical Association’s 1800 House program is dedicated to celebrating and reviving Nantucket’s rich tradition of early American decorative arts. We're excited to be able to bring this program online.
