At the Beach

“At the Beach” black and white scrimshaw on ancient mammoth tusk ivory bark by Jim Pauls. Properly attired Victorian couple admiring the ships in the harbor. Pauls has filled the harbor with various vessels, some commercial, others pleasure boats. In the distance is the familiar lighthouse. Not to be forgotten are the two seagulls which appear in most of his work. He excelled in straight line work, but also used stipple for the sky. Excellent work all the way around. From the extensive collection of one of our clients who is no longer with us.
