EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Great Eastern Under Weigh July 23rd 1865 Escort" captures a momentous event in history, showcasing the great technological achievements of the 19th century. Painted by Robert Charles Dudley, a British artist known for his detailed drawings, this artwork beautifully depicts the iconic ship HMS Great Eastern as it sets sail on its groundbreaking journey. Measuring approximately 7 1/4 by 12 1/2 inches, this watercolor and graphite masterpiece is brought to life with delicate touches of gouache. The composition showcases not only the grandeur of the Great Eastern but also highlights other ships such as HMS Terrible, Sphinx, and Hawk that accompany her on her voyage. This historic moment marked a significant milestone in communication as well. Beneath the Atlantic Ocean lay a telegraphic cable that enabled messages to be transmitted at an unprecedented speed between North America and Europe. The Great Eastern played a pivotal role in laying this cable, allowing messages to travel back and forth within minutes instead of taking twelve days by steamer. As we admire this artwork from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, let us appreciate both the artistic skill behind it and its representation of one of mankind's greatest achievements. This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come in our quest for progress and innovation.
