A journey to the center of the earth (view 1, uptown stairway)
as portrayed in tiles on the walls of the NYC uptown subway stop (A-B-C)
at 81st and Central Park West. (ISO, no zoom, no flash).
If you look closely…
Your hint is that 81st and Central Park West is the subway stop for the Museum of Natural History.
The 'shadow' looks vaguely reminiscent of some reconstructions I've seen of Ichthyostega or perhaps Tiktaalik?
I'm thinking either Ichthyostega or Acanthostega.
the mosaic is older than our knowledge of Tiktaalik, so it has to either be Ichthyostega or Acanthostega.
