The best historical photographs
Some photos become historic because of their importance, as they are the record of an era. Others, because they manage to highlight a little-known side of relevant personalities of world history. Below, check out some examples:
Alfred Hitchcock and the Grandchildren in the Snow
Perhaps you, like most people, know Alfred Hitchcock only as the famous film director and the “king of horror”. However, even horror icons have their cute moments, as is the case with this photograph of Hitchcock enjoying a day in the snow with his grandchildren in 1960.
Salvador Dalí and his exotic pet
In terms of exoticism, few can beat the surrealist Salvador Dalí, who stood out as one of the great names of the 20th century for his eccentricity. For example, check out this photograph in which the painter takes to the streets of Paris with his pet, an anteater, in 1969.
The arrival of technology
In this case, we have a photo that marks the moment when computer technology begins to take shape. Look at this massive 5 megabyte computer that was being shipped in 1956.
A scientist in action
Another wonderful photograph shows the private environment of experiments by one of the greatest scientists of all time, Nikola Tesla. In the photo, we can see Tesla sitting next to a wonderful electrical transmitter.
Titanic
Have you ever seen a picture of the real Titanic? Although we see the film quite often, few have actually seen a photo of the ship that went down in history. In this case, this photo is the last record of the ship in 1912.
Life on Mars?
Finally, a more recent photo, from 2018, but which is just as relevant as the others! This is a record of NASA's "Roger" explorer robot on a mission to Mars. This is an important record of the red planet.
