ABOUT THIS PHOTOGRAPH
Hungarian-American photographer Balthazar Korab spent much of his career photographing some of the most iconic buildings of the 20th century. Named after former US Secretary of State John Dulles, the sweeping concrete roof evoking an airplane taking off was designed in 1958 by Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen, and jointly dedicated by then President John F. Kennedy and his predecessor Dwight Eisenhower. Whilst the exact date is not known, the cars to the right are (from front to back) a '63 American Rambler, an MG Midget, and a '63 Chevrolet Impala. As for the gorgeous purple sunset? Another genuine colour photograph by Korab during the same period (or even the same day) gives us a glimpse of the future of flight nestling in the Virginian landscape.– Jordan J. Lloyd

The Past as It Was
We honour the past by restoring historical images to the same quality as the day they were created. To serve the artist’s intent, we remaster, reconstruct, sharpen, colour-correct, colorize and enlarge their image with total devotion to historical authenticity. That makes your print a window to the past as it was. See for yourself.

Update on U.S. Orders
We're pausing US shipping from 18 August 2025 while we update our checkout.
Due to a U.S. government executive order, all UK to U.S. shipments will soon be subject to additional tariffs, effective 29 August 2025. While the exact amount isn’t confirmed, we expect it to be around 10% of the item value or a flat $80 per item if duties aren’t paid.
As a small business, we need time to assess the impact and ensure we protect both ourselves and our customers. The USA is our second-largest market after the UK, and although we’re confident this will be resolved soon, we are temporarily halting U.S. sales.
