Review:
The Whaling Wall is an impressive mural along Eugene O’Neill Drive. This mural was completed by Wyland, a world-famous whale artist, who spent a week completing it. Wyland was from California and was painting life-size whale murals on building walls in all 15 states lining the United States’ east coast. New London was the logical choice for the mural in Connecticut since it was known as a “Whaling City”. The mural features a Sperm Whale and the mural is 40 feet tall and 170 feet long. Upon completion, the Connecticut Governor dedicated the mural and it officially became a city landmark.
