And a confession...

Perhaps now is the time for a complete and unreserved confession:

• Yes, the image is photoshopped.
• And I must admit that Tesla was considerably more stylish.
• But to my defence I may add that his famous pictures from the lab were also trick images, and I don´t think the scale was quite accurate there either...

In my mind Nicola Tesla was a showman as well as an inventor, and he obviously liked to make a strong impresssion on his audience.
