General notes on Image 12

  • This is the image for November and the immigration reference is to Russia.
  • This image is thought to be linked to Verse 10 and a casque in the New York City area.

 

 

 

 

Specific Observations

  Please record your notes about this image in the list below.  Use the letter/number grid to identify the point on the image that you're describing.  To keep things organized, 1) please start each observation with a letter/number combo (in bold), and 2) add new observations in the right place on the list to keep everything alphabetized.

  • B5 - In the gap between the ends of the bird's wings, where we should see the edge of the window, we only see the wall.
  • C3, C6, & C7 - The colored dot patterns are similar to those used in the Ishihara test for color blindness.
  • C6 - The head of the bird is similar to the bird heads on the Chrysler building (see below).
  • D3 - The doorway could represent Ellis Island, the doorway to America.
  • D4 - The dark rectangle could be the World Trade Center (completed in 1973 and destroyed in 2001) or it could be the berth where ships docked at Ellis Island.
  • D5 - The building shown as an outline has the onion domes that are commonly (but not exclusively) found on Russian Orthodox churches.
  • D6 - The face is a good match for the face on the Statue of Liberty (see below).
  • D7 - The time on the clock is 11:00, indicating the month of November.
  • F4 - The flower is a chrysanthemum.
  • F6 & G6 - If the overall shape of the dress is taken to be Manhattan, then the sash hanging in the middle could represent Central Park.
  • J5, K6, J7 & K7 - Three of the four small shapes below the dress could represent the three small islands just below lower Manhattan: Ellis Island, Liberty Island, and Governors Island.  There isn't an obvious match for the fourth shape.
  • K6 - The jewel is a topaz.

 

 

Other Notes:

  • This final image appears to be paired with the first image, Image 1.  Both have the same narrow shape with the rounded top.
  • The nose on this image is directly above the jewel.  The vertical line that passes through the nose and jewel in this image is exactly the same line that passes through the nose and jewel in Image 1

 

 

 

Image Matches

The face is a match for the Statue of Liberty, particularly in the lips and the shaded eyes.
The bird is very similar to the iconic sculptures on the Chrysler Building.
The bird is an even better match to the stone birds on top of the Ferry Building at Ellis Island.  (Note the longer beak, the lack of an overbite, and the open mouth with a visible tongue.)
 

 

 

Latitude / Longitude Hints

 

There appears to be a "74" in the waves below the woman's dress.  The line for 74 degrees west runs through lower Manhatten and Brooklyn.  The Statue of Liberty is only slightly further west at 74.04 degrees.
