People tend to go back to history in an attempt to rethink the events of the past. I would like to “revive” old films and pictures, give them relevance, look at them with a fresh look, in order to see what was previously inaccessible. Therefore, a whole direction in the technique of photography appeared - colorization. This is a colorization of black and white photographs. At first they painted by hand, but the occupation was incredibly time-consuming. Technique did not stand still, technologies became more complicated, and now anyone who has experience with photography and patience can submit their own version of black and white photographs.
