Captain Nemo’s Nautilus
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea Exhibit (Jun 2024)
Mystic Seaport Museum, Mystic CT USA

#photography #mysticseaport
Color photo of a dramatically darkened exhibit hall of a ‘20,000 Leagues Under the Sea’ exhibit at Mystic Seaport, Mystic CT. A walk-through model of Captain Nemo’s Nautilus features a horse with the hind quarters of a fish — mermaid style — riding a long cylindrical prow jutting from the hull. The hull of the Nautilus is matte black, about child-height and about twice as wide, like a horizontally stretched cylinder. To the right of the prow is a large circular window — almost the height of the hull — circled by a bright blue ring of light. Behind the Nautilus, a brightly lit fluorescent orange giant squid hangs from the ceiling of the exhibit hall.

Restored 250 foot segment of a 1,000 foot 19th century ropewalk building, used until 1947.

#photography #mysticseaport

https://mysticseaport.org/explore/village-old/ropewalk/
Color photo of the interior of a long, narrow wooden building, a 250 foot segment of 1000 foot 1824 ropewalk, used for spinning lengths of fiber into long ropes for sailing ships. Large wooden pillars about every ten feet divide the length of the room into two galleries. In the left gallery, strands of fiber are twisted to form rope by spinning them through a circular device. The right gallery is open for workers — and visitors to walk freely. Small figures of visitors are visible at the far end of the building. The ropewalk was moved to and restored at the Mystic Seaport Museum, Mystic CT USA.

a carved wooden ships figurehead of a woman in 19th century dress holding binoculars. two carved wooden ships figureheads, one showing two girls dancing (a rare double figure figurehead) and another of a woman holding rosary beads said to be a based on Joan of Arc. Mystic CT Seaport museum. Two carved wooden ships figureheads, one showing a man in Roman dress, another a cliche’d depiction of a middle eastern or south asian man. Both are described in wall text as being more closely based on theatrical depictions of the time they were carved (rather than real people). At Mystic CT Seaport museum. Entry to figurehead gallery at the Mystic Seaport museum showing carved wooden ships figureheads and sculpture, including an eagle head and a depiction of Sir Francis Drake.
