Out of Sample illustrates its articles sparingly, with historical prints and paintings of early exchanges, photographs of computing equipment and objects, and a few drawings made for the site. Every image comes either from the public domain, from authors who waived their rights under CC0, or from our own work. This page lists each one with its origin.
