Morse pursued his dream of becoming an historical painter with his “Gallery of the Louvre” only to face public scrutiny: a turning point in his life and for the world as Morse abandoned painting altogether to focus on developing his idea for the telegraph. Samuel Morse’s invention and its language Morse Code would ultimately revolutionize communication, impact wars and change the way we live today.
