They're interacting and for a brief moment sharing physical states. Paul-Antoine Moreau, first author on the paper where the image was unveiled, told the BBC the image was "an elegant demonstration of a fundamental property of nature". To capture the incredible photo, Moreau and a team of physicists created a system that blasted out streams of entangled photons at what they described as 'non-conventional objects'. The experiment actually involved capturing four images of the photons under four different phase transitions. https://www.sciencealert.com/scientists-just-unveiled-the-first-ever-photo-of-quantum-entanglement
