Art provides an opportunity for kaleidoscopic thinking. Each time we shift the lens of our perceptions, we gain new perspectives — and new opportunities for innovation. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR RECENT SALE OF AN WONDERFUL WORK!

Sally: I believe you are mistaken about the name of the photographer who took this famous photograph in NYC. It was actually Alfred Eisenstaedt, a staff photographer with LIFE magazine. You'll see his photo if you search his name on Google.
Sally Rockefeller replied:
Hi Carl, Both men photographed the event. It's true that Eisenstaedt's photo appeared in LIFE magazine, but J. Seward Johnson said that he based the statue on Jorgensen's photo. If you search Jorgensen's name, you'll see his version. Thanks, Sally

Thanks, Amador. Your work is very nice! We seem to have a number of themes in common... I especially like the Chrysler Building photos! Sally
