moby dick- chapter 3
When Ishmael walks into the Spouters inn with many images of the whale including the name of the inn (the whale's spout), he comes upon a large painting that immediately catches his attention. It seems to be a ship in the middle of a hurricane with a large whale about to impale itself on the ship's three masts. http://education.yahoo.com/homework_help/cliffsnotes/mobydick/11.html
This is an example of both imagery and foreshadowing of what is going to happen possibly later in the book. Queegueg is the savage cannibal who shares a bed with Ishmael and later becomes his friend and shipmate. www.wikipedia.com
