因《x档案》而出名的UFO照片将被拍卖

A series of iconic purported UFO images, including some that were featured in the “The X-Files” TV show, are up for auction.

一系列声称是UFO的标志性图像，包括一些在《x档案》电视节目中出现的图像，将被拍卖。

The images are part of a Sotheby’s online auction devoted to space photography. They include a lot of six prints by “Billy” Eduard Albert Meier that are from Switzerland in 1975. “These images purport to depict an interstellar visit by spacecraft from the planet Erra, two with a single UFO moving slowly over the town of Berg Rumlikon and four images depicting a single UFO in a forested hilly area of Schmidrüti,” said Sotheby’s in a statement.

这些照片是苏富比太空摄影在线拍卖的一部分。其中包括很多“比利”爱德华·艾伯特·迈耶1975年在瑞士创作的六幅版画。苏富比在一份声明中说:“这些照片旨在描述来自地球拉行星的宇宙飞船的一次星际之旅，其中两张是一架不明飞行物在伯格鲁米肯镇缓慢移动的照片，另外四张是一架不明飞行物在施密特鲁迪森林丘陵地区的照片。”

“One of the images in this lot was used to create the famous ‘I Want to Believe’ poster featured in the first three seasons of The X-Files,” the auction house explained.

该拍卖行解释说:“这批照片中的一张被用来制作《x档案》前三季的著名海报《我要相信》。”

The poster was often seen in the office of FBI Special Agent Fox Mulder, played by David Duchovny. The lot with the image used to create the ‘I Want to Believe’ poster has a pre-sale estimate of $6,000 to $9,000.

这张海报经常出现在联邦调查局特工福克斯·穆德(大卫·杜楚尼饰)的办公室里。这批带有“我要相信”(I Want to Believe)海报图案的拍品的预售估价为6,000至9,000美元。

The sale also includes two Meier photos used in the series trailer for the 2016 reboot of the show. One image is part of a set of seven vintage chromogenic prints by Meier in Bachtelh?rnli, Switzerland, on March 28, 1976. This lot also has a pre-sale estimate of $6,000 to $9,000.

Another image used in the trailer reboot is part of four vintage chromogenic prints by Meier in Schmidrüti, Berg Rumlikon and Winkelreit-Wetzikon Switzerland in 1975. The lot has a pre-sale estimate of $4,000 to $6,000.
