Sullivan. Who Swam the English Channel, Aug. 5th & 6th 1923. From Dover, England to Calais, France. Establishing World’s Endurance Record. World’s Breast Stroke Record. 26 Hours 50 Minutes, on stem sculpted with two classical maidens, one holding a trident, the other a caduceus, on a circular stepped foot, with maker’s inscription along rim, ht. 37 3/4 in., approx.

373.4 troy oz.

Note: A celebrated endurance swimmer in the early years of the 20th century, Henry F. Sullivan was the first American to swim across the English Channel, and the third overall. During the course of this historic swim, Sullivan broke the world swimming endurance record, along with the world breaststroke record. Discussing a film chronicling Sullivan’s Channel crossing, the London Daily Sketch on October 3, 1923, stated, “The film of Henry F. Sullivan’s swim is the most interesting film we have ever seen, showing all details of this plucky American in “THE GREATEST FEAT OF ENDURANCE OF ALL TIME,” swimming from England to France in 26 hours and 50 minutes, in a sea almost unfit for boats.” It was Sullivan’s seventh attempt. After the swim, Sullivan met the Prince of Wales, toured Britain, and returned home, where he triumphantly traveled the United States as a sporting hero for four years.

Sullivan did not confine his feats to Europe. His accomplishments include swimming from Nantasket Beach across the Massachusetts Bay to Provincetown, from Middle Ground Light, New York across the Long Island Sound to Bridgeport, Connecticut, and the Catalina Channel and Golden Gate in San Francisco, and also defending his numerous titles of aquatic achievements.

A native of Lowell, Massachusetts, Sullivan’s first swimming race was won in that city’s Long Pond when he was 13. After his sporting career wound down, Sullivan ran a successful business in his home state of Massachusetts. This magnificent trophy is a masterpiece of silversmithing, and an historic relic of the golden era of adventure, exploration, and sporting first achievements.

N.B. The subject matter of children engaged in adult artistic pursuits, which has become known as “Infant Academies,” flourished in the mid18th century. The motif is most familiar to us today through Sir Joshua Reynolds’s painting, Children, 1782, and the subsequent print titled The Infant Academy, in which infants play the roles of portrait artist, sitter, and observers. In the painting at hand, the theme is expanded to include children in pursuit of the fine arts of painting, sculpture, and architecture. The implications of the infant academies are varied, at times comic or satirical, other times suggesting the artist’s need to reclaim childlike freshness to nurture their creative vision.
