CHRIS CALLE (B. 1961) DIVER IN
CHRIS CALLE (B. 1961) DIVER IN CHUUK LAGOONChris Calle (American, B. 1961) "Diver in Chuuk Lagoon" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media on Illustration Board.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
This painting was originally published as the Federated States of Micronesia lower left stamp on the 32c Chuuk Lagoon Se-tenant Block of 4 issued February 6, 1995.
Measuring 38 miles in diameter and reaching depths of more than 300 feet, Chuuk Lagoon is regarded as one of the best diving spots in the world. It is estimated that over 100 sunken ships as well as scores of aircraft and submarine wreckage litter the lagoon bed. Many are remnants of World War II. In 1944, Allied forces began a relentless push across the Pacific toward Japan. During this campaign, the lagoon -- which had become a large base of operations -- was the scene of continuous bombing, strafing and torpedo runs aimed at disabling this vital Japanese stronghold. Enhancing the myriad coral-encrusted wrecks found in Chuuk Lagoon is a fascinating display of marine life. The snorkelers, divers, underwater photographers and scientists who flock to this intriguing world beneath the sea are treated to a magnificent kaleidoscope of engaging creatures. Colorful clown triggerfish, exotic lion fish and schools of blue devil fish flit among fields of brilliantly hued coral, providing a show like nothing above the surface.
