i came across these images on for me, for you and they've caused me to reflect in the most peculiar way. for some reason, whenever i think of the past, i don't generally picture it in full colour. i imagine the 70's to be lived in highly-saturated technicolour, and most things prior to that (particularly those in the early 1900's), in black and white.
for the most part, i attribute this to the fact that all of the media from that time is in black and white - except these.
check out kate's original post for the whole story, but these are revolutionary colour (yes, colour!) photos taken in russia in the early 1900's. fascinating, no?

Oh wow. Truly amazing pics :)
These are so, so neat! It reminds of how people would describe cathedrals being in color--the painted pillars and walls, I just never think about it!
I love these pictures so much! The saturation is just fantastic. Thanks for sharing. :)
