Scene from Moby Dick is a painting that hangs behind the Simpsons Couch. According to Marge, it has a resemblance to Moby Dick.[1]
Apparently, Marge drew it herself, as she mused about her wasted talent in front of a disturbed Bart and Lisa.[2] However, in "Diatribe of a Mad Housewife" Marge thanks the painting and looks at its name, because she didn't know it, so it seems like she didn't really draw the painting.
The family has a cupboard full of spare paintings. After Homer smashed one over his head, Marge got a new one out.[3]
Lisa's pet guinea pig Pokey destroyed the painting by poking through it after running out of its built habitat, leading Homer and Marge to take it down and replace it.[4] It is suggested that she has run out of spare paintings, as Homer later gets it replaced with a copy.
Appearances
Since the painting appears in the background in most episodes, we will only list when it is used in a gag or plot point.
