So this one is pretty cool. An artist named Lydia created the following photo, which is actually the blending of pictures, that honors the San Francisco 49ers past, present, and future. It features legendary 49ers head coach Bill Walsh, and current coach Kyle Shanahan, speaking to each other in the locker room.
Who knows what that conversation might have sounded like? Would they have been talking about schemes, specific plays, life philosophy? Who knows?
You can view the photo below.
Honor the Past.
Embrace the Future.#49ers pic.twitter.com/m4qf6y3vLN

General manager John Lynch also took notice and posted the following.
This is awesome. 2 of my favorite people, let alone Coaches. Someone sent it to me earlier and I forwarded to Kyle. He was humbled and very appreciative. https://t.co/t0jMV3ilIy

Walsh passed away on July 30, 2007, after a battle with leukemia. He spent 10 seasons as the head coach of the 49ers, guiding the team to three Super Bowl championships.
The 49ers hired Shanahan in 2017. He led the team to the Super Bowl this past season but fell just short of the franchise's sixth Lombardi Trophy.
