Thread of historical photos you've (probably) never seen before 🧵
1. A wheat field in Manhattan, 1982
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.
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.
The construction of this architectural marvel began in 1386 and wasn't fully completed until 1965.
It is the largest church in the Italian Republic— St. Peter's Basilica is in the Vatican, a separate sovereign state—and the third largest in the world.
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.
