Thread of historical photos you've (probably) never seen before 🧵

1. A wheat field in Manhattan, 1982 Image
2. Oppenheimer and Einstein, 1947

This photo by A. Eisenstaedt shows Robert Oppenheimer in conversation with Albert Einstein, immortalizing the meeting of two of the most influential figures in 20th-century physics.

The colorization gives the moment an almost tangible feel. Image
3. A mob of outraged parents shout insults at 6-year-old Ruby Bridges as she walks into a formerly all-white school — the first Black child to do so in the American South, 1960.

Bridges is now 70 years old. Image

2. Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II

Situated in the center of Milan, it is Italy’s oldest active shopping gallery.

It is named in honor of Victor Emmanuel II, the first king of the Kingdom of Italy. Image

In those rare moments, the rainbow reveals itself as a perfect circle.
