Modern Scrimshaw in Madeira



The Whale Museum of Madeira is one of the island's still slightly hidden treasures. This inspired homage to the ocean giants and the island's unique relationship to them is currently hosting a display of local children's art. Each piece is based on the tooth of a sperm whale.











A spectacular part of the permanent exhibition - the great whale hall.
