EDITORS COMMENTS
The 'Great Eastern' stands as a monumental symbol of innovation and progress during the creation of the Atlantic Telegraph in 1850. This engraving captures the intricate plans for this colossal vessel, showcasing the meticulous attention to detail required for such a groundbreaking project. As one gazes upon this image, they are transported back to a time when communication across vast oceans was nothing short of miraculous. The 'Great Eastern' served as both a beacon of hope and a testament to human ingenuity, pushing the boundaries of what was thought possible. The construction site depicted in this print is alive with activity, as workers labor tirelessly to bring this ambitious vision to life. Every plank laid and every bolt tightened represents another step towards connecting continents through telegraphy.

The faults and challenges faced during construction only serve to highlight the resilience and determination of those involved in this historic endeavor. In an era defined by progress and exploration, the 'Great Eastern' emerges as a shining example of mankind's ability to conquer even the most daunting obstacles. This engraving serves as a reminder of our capacity for greatness when we dare to dream big and work together towards a common goal.
