Well, I’ve got Man Ray for the violin, and Steichen for the Flatiron. The Flatiron one was taken and produced into a crude ‘colour’ photograph by adding colour.
Longshot. Is it Man Ray’s objet d’art entitled ‘Cadeau’ (1921), which is a flat iron with a load of nails protruding from it?

Le Violon d'Ingres is a black and white photograph, with model Kiki de Montparnasse being shown from the back. The picture with the tower is known as the Flatiron building.
Thanks, yorkie.
The hotline advertised in the first Ghostbusters film was a real number. What happened when you called it?

It looks like a flute or wind instrument, but the close-ups are throwing me. Is it man-made?
