the random muse

I always love seeing pictures of the spaces where famous writers and thinkers work…whether those spaces are cluttered or clean, they each say something about the person who used them. I love this picture, part of a series taken the day Albert Einsten died. It’s the small details that make a space like this so personal, like the indentation in the back of his chair. I can just picture Einstein leaning back, hands laced behind his head, gazing out the window and formulating theories about black holes.
