Historical photo/ Who did Albert Einstein stick out his tongue at?

The most famous photograph of the genius physicist Albert Einstein, with his tongue out, looks like it was taken by a comedian rather than a cool man of science. The shot is completely original, not a trick.

The photo dates back to the famous physicist's 72nd birthday, when friends and colleagues prepared a celebration on March 14, 1951, at the Princeton Club.

Many friends arrived, as well as media photographers. There, Einstein met professional photographer Arthur Sasse, who took several pictures of him.

The party ended and the tired professor headed for the car. Sasse begged for another photo. Einstein responded by sticking his tongue out humorously, and thus the glorious photo was created.

Arthur Sasse sent him several copies of all the birthday photos and immediately, Einstein "fell in love" with the now legendary photograph, ordering nine copies of it.

The famous physicist used this photo on all occasions, which shows how much he liked it.
