The Story Behind the Print
Nikola Tesla's U.S. Patent 613,809, granted November 8, 1898, records a method and apparatus for controlling moving vessels or vehicles from a distance. Radio signals operated steering and other mechanisms aboard the craft. The sheet is numbered 613,809.
Fig. 1 is a top-down view of a pointed hull, with two rows of batteries, small motors toward the bow, a central control box, and steering gear and a propeller at the stern. The sheet is headed N. Tesla, Method of and Apparatus for Controlling Mechanism of Moving Vessels or Vehicles, marked sheet 1 of 5, with witnesses' and Tesla's signatures at the foot.
Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece — the print will always be richer.
