Limited edition giclée print of The Deep Sea Diver IX from The Jobs of Yesteryear Series.

Freediving for food or resources such as pearls and coral dates back to 4500 BCE. Since then, our ability to survive below the surface has radically evolved with many technological leaps along the way. One of the earliest types of equipment for underwater exploration was the diving bell, which evolved into surface-supplied diving helmets attached to a waterproof suit in the early 19th century. They were supplied with compressed air by manually operated pumps and made underwater projects much more practical. Many developments followed, with a major leap coming in the form of the Aqua-Lung, invented by two Frenchmen in 1943 as the first open-circuit SCUBA system to reach worldwide and commercial success.
