“Every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you,” Walt Whitman wrote in one of his profoundest verses, in a golden age of science and social change, yet an era at least as divisive as ours.

This stunning cyanotype painting by artist Lia Halloran, celebrating Whitman’s immortal words, is available as a print with 100% of proceeds benefiting the endeavor to build NYC’s first public observatory – an ultimate invitation to unforget our shared humanity under the dome of the cosmic perspective. Get yours at the link.
