EDITORS COMMENTS
In this watercolor print titled "Getting Out Large Buoys Launching August 2nd" created by British artist Robert Charles Dudley in the 19th century, we are transported back to a time of great technological achievements. The artwork showcases the laying of a telegraphic cable beneath the Atlantic Ocean, which revolutionized communication between North America and Europe. The scene depicts a steamer ship surrounded by workers diligently preparing to launch large buoys into the vast ocean on August 2nd, 1865. Dudley's attention to detail is evident in his use of graphite, gouache, and touches of color that bring life to every stroke on the sheet measuring approximately 7 5/16 x 10 3/8 inches (18.6 x 26.3 cm). This historic event marked a significant milestone as it allowed messages to be transmitted at an unprecedented speed back and forth across the Atlantic within minutes instead of taking twelve days or more via traditional means. The artwork captures both the magnitude and excitement surrounding this groundbreaking achievement. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, we can't help but marvel at Dudley's ability to capture not only the physical labor involved in launching these buoys but also the sense of anticipation for what lies ahead - a new era where continents would be connected through instantaneous communication.
