EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Foilhummerum Bay Valentia Cromwell Fort Caroline Laying" showcases the remarkable artwork of Robert Charles Dudley, a British artist from the 19th century. The piece beautifully depicts one of the great technological achievements of its time - the laying of a telegraphic cable beneath the Atlantic Ocean. In this stunning watercolor and graphite composition with touches of gouache, Dudley captures the historic moment when communication between North America and Europe was revolutionized. On July 21st, 1865, as depicted in his drawings, a steamer named Earthwire played a vital role in this groundbreaking endeavor. Measuring approximately 6 5/16 by 9 7/16 inches (16 by 24 cm), this sheet transports us back to an era where messages that once took ten to twelve days to reach their destination could now be transmitted within minutes. The Foilhummerum Bay Valentia Cromwell Fort served as an essential location for this telegraph cable's installation. The Liszt Collection presents this extraordinary print as a testament to human ingenuity and progress. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in our quest for global connectivity and communication advancements. Let this artwork transport you back in time while marveling at one of history's most significant milestones - forever etched on paper by Robert Charles Dudley's masterful hand.
