That's a pretty standard Cray feature for systems larger than a few cabinets. El Capitan has the landscape, Hopper at NERSC had a photo of Grace Hopper, Aurora at ANL has a creamy gradient reminiscent of the Borealis, and on and on. Gives them a bit of character beyond the bad-ass Cray label on the doors.
