This incredible photo shows two Nobel Prize winners, Albert Einstein and Maria Skłodowska-Curie, having a stroll by Lake Léman in Switzerland.
Einstein invited the Polish scientist to go sailing on the lake, where Maria Skłodowska-Curie discovered that Albert Einstein, the man who discovered the theory of relativity did not know how to … swim!
The two scientists were long time friends, a friendship that lasted from 1909 till 1933, during which they corresponded with each other, met at conferences, went on holidays to the Alps and had joint projects for the League of Nations.
Both of them admired each other deeply, with Einstein saying of the Pole: “Maria Curie-Skłodowska is, of all celebrated beings, the only one whom fame has not corrupted.” - World History Files Wiki
