March 29, 2015: Britain 1928 in color
Today Mashable features a set of colour photographs of Britain 1928.
Back in the day, IotD was one of the first places to highlight the Prokudin-Gorskii color photographs that appeared, of Russia from 1907-1915. So these shots are not as historically striking, appearing in color... but still interesting. They used the Autochrome process here; we are not used to seeing much in color until after Kodachrome came about in 1935. ![]() ![]() And the most British of the shots, pageantry of Britannia and her four knights. There are still four today. ![]() Many more at Mashable |
