Back Page - The Tinted Photograph - Page Two

There was a time when there was no such dream as an actual color photograph.

So, photographs could be "tinted" by hand to boost the realism. Some of these old photographs are quite artistic.

Others, well, not so much ...

This one at the right, is lightly tinted and
has tiny "jewels" (probably glass chips)
added to the dress.
