The Man Who Went Shopping For Dining Chairs and Accidentally Bought Stonehenge.

On September 21, 1915, a British barrister named Cecil Chubb was given a very simple task by his wife, Mary. She sent him to a local auction in Salisbury with strict instructions: buy a nice set of dining chairs for their home.

But as Chubb sat in the auction house, he got distracted. "Lot 15" came up for sale, a 30-acre plot of land featuring a crumbling, dilapidated ring of ancient rocks.

@globalmuseum We were there a few weeks ago.
@adrianco @globalmuseum your second photo pretty much confirms that the OP image is ai-generated. Either that or the stones have moved!
@jbenjamint @globalmuseum Some stones have been moved and ā€œrestoredā€ I think, but there’s lots of similar angles and perspectives…
