History in Color

When we look at black-and-white photos, then sometimes forget that previous generations of life was painted in the same colors that surround us today.
Participants of the project "History in color" on the site reddit figured out how to look to the last century and thus bring life to old photos. Professional artists and illustrators painted pictures that exist only in black and white.
