My father sent me the link to these wonderful color photos taken in Russia between 1905 and 1915.
This was, of course, before color photography. The photographer developed a clever technique to produce color images from a sequence of black and white photographs taken with red, blue, and green filters, and then presenting them with a special projector which also contained those filters.
It’s a wonderful glimpse of Russia’s pre-Revolution past. The photos are worth viewing just for the beautiful clothing, if nothing else.

Aren’t those photos amazing?!
Those are gorgeous – and what a clever photographer!
Interesting how you can see where the color splits out if the subject was moving between the photos. It almost looks like you’re looking at an old-style 3D image.
Oh wow, that’s amazing. I love that wood chapel.
Thank you for sharing those. The images of the people are hauntingly beautiful.
Holy cow! Those are astonishing, and all the more amazing because of the clever technique. I can’t wait to show my photographer-husband. He’ll be enchanted! Thanks for sharing them.
What fantastic clothing the ruling class wore! Love it!
