Cover of the book Moby Dick; Or, The Whale by Herman Melville. The middle section features a simple but evocative illustration of a white whale, presumably Moby Dick himself. The whale is shown in profile, breaching or swimming at the surface of stylized ocean waters. The illustration shows: The whale's distinctive white body rendered in light coloring against the gray background A spray or spout coming from the whale's blowhole The whale's tail (fluke) visible, suggesting movement Horizontal lines representing the ocean's surface Simple linework giving texture to the whale's body and the water https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/2701/pg2701-images.html
