I've heard of this being done in other industries, for instance mapmakers inserting tiny, nonexistent islands, or reference books having fake entries. That way they can prove that another piece copied their work. The artist might have assumed (correctly) that most people wouldn't notice the inaccuracies. It seems a little unnecessary for a photograph though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6010505890506526002.post-31150770882754415312013-08-29T07:27:04.903-04:002013-08-29T07:27:04.903-04:00Why is nobody commenting on Element R2O7?Why is nobody commenting on Element R2O7?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04431555367231735187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6010505890506526002.post-12815775652054211092013-08-28T15:59:46.680-04:002013-08-28T15:59:46.680-04:00Thanks for the detective work!

I looked at the Getty Image database and that particular image is on page 5 so they had to look hard to find. Also of note, until about 1997 those particular elements names were disputed so this may have been made then or using old information.Ben Yanceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11692390308470967196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6010505890506526002.post-68186026151465791312013-08-28T14:02:15.210-04:002013-08-28T14:02:15.210-04:00Is that a serious question?
