Aiding Nature by a Skilful Fake.

In the original of this picture the boat appeared much as in the photograph above. Added dramatic value has been given by “retouching” or painting in the imaginary flukes of the whale, as he might have raised them if he had been more accommodating. (See [page 62].)
