EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic Travelers Insurance Tower in Hartford, Connecticut, seemingly surrounded by a fleet of flying saucers. However, upon closer inspection, this extraordinary sight is revealed to be an optical illusion created by the reflection of rivets on a bridge girder covered with water. Taken by Einar Chindmark in 1960, this image showcases his keen eye for capturing unique perspectives and creating illusions that challenge our perception. The juxtaposition of the towering insurance building against the surreal presence of UFOs adds an element of intrigue and mystery to the scene. The photograph not only highlights Chindmark's artistic prowess but also serves as a reminder of how easily our senses can deceive us. It reminds us to question what we see and seek alternative explanations before jumping to conclusions. With its blend of architectural beauty and unexpected extraterrestrial elements, this image transports viewers back to a time when imagination ran wild and tales of alien encounters fascinated society. It encapsulates both the fascination with outer space during that era and the enduring allure of optical illusions. As part of Granger Art on Demand's collection, this thought-provoking print invites viewers to explore their own perceptions while appreciating the artistry behind it.
