By 1871, he had moved to the USA, becoming professor of Vocal Physiology at Boston. He performed experiments in converting sound waves into electrical impulses for transmission down wires (telephony). While not the true inventor of the telephone, Bells work helped develop and make telephones into practical working devices. He patented his telephone (1876) and founded the Bell Telephone Company

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the brilliant mind behind one of history's most groundbreaking inventions. Alexander G. Bell, a Scottish-American inventor, is depicted here using his most famous creation - the telephone. Born in 1847 into a family of speech therapists, Bell followed in their footsteps while also delving into the study of sound waves and speech mechanics. In 1871, he made his way to the United States and became a professor of Vocal Physiology at Boston. It was during this time that he conducted experiments on converting sound waves into electrical impulses for transmission through wires - an innovation that would revolutionize communication forever. Although not solely credited as the true inventor of the telephone, Bell played an instrumental role in its development and practical application. In 1876, he patented his invention and went on to establish the renowned Bell Telephone Company. This remarkable portrait captures Bell's determination and ingenuity as he gazes intently into the receiver of his invention. The artwork beautifully portrays him as a Caucasian man with European features, highlighting both his Scottish heritage and American influence. With this image, we are transported back to the late 19th century when technology was rapidly advancing under visionaries like Alexander Graham Bell. It serves as a powerful reminder of how human curiosity can shape our world by bridging distances and connecting people across continents through communication devices like telephones - forever changing history's course.
