QUE SIGNIFIE SCRIMSHAW EN ANGLAIS

Scrimshaw

Scrimshaw

Scrimshaw est le nom donné au scrollwork, aux gravures et aux sculptures réalisées en os ou en ivoire. En règle générale, il s'agit de la main-d'œuvre créée par les baleiniers fabriqués à partir de sous-produits de la récolte de mammifères marins. Il est le plus souvent fabriqué à partir des os et des dents des spermatozoïdes, du baleen des autres baleines et des défenses des malles. Il prend la forme de gravures élaborées sous forme d'images et de lettres sur la surface de l'os ou de la dent, avec la gravure mise en évidence à l'aide d'un pigment ou, moins souvent, de petites sculptures fabriquées à partir d'un même matériau. Cependant, ces derniers tombent réellement dans les catégories de sculpture en ivoire, pour toutes les dents sculptées et les défenses, ou la sculpture sur les os. La fabrication de scrimshaw a commencé sur les navires baleiniers entre 1745 et 1759 sur l'océan Pacifique, et a survécu jusqu'à l'interdiction de la chasse commerciale à la baleine. La pratique survit comme passe-temps et comme métier pour les artisans commerciaux. Un fabricant de scrimshaw est connu sous le nom de scrimshander. L'étymologie est incertaine, mais il y a eu plusieurs propositions.

Scrimshaw is the name given to scrollwork, engravings, and carvings done in bone or ivory. Typically it refers to the handiwork created by whalers made from the byproducts of harvesting marine mammals. It is most commonly made out of the bones and teeth of sperm whales, the baleen of other whales, and the tusks of walruses. It takes the form of elaborate engravings in the form of pictures and lettering on the surface of the bone or tooth, with the engraving highlighted using a pigment, or, less often, small sculptures made from the same material. However the latter really fall into the categories of ivory carving, for all carved teeth and tusks, or bone carving. The making of scrimshaw began on whaling ships between 1745 to 1759 on the Pacific Ocean, and survived until the ban on commercial whaling. The practice survives as a hobby and as a trade for commercial artisans. A maker of scrimshaw is known as a scrimshander. The etymology is uncertain, but there have been several proposals.
