    What is this differential fading?

    A friend sent me this picture of a family portrait from about 1908. One of those chaps is his grandpa. Given the date, would it have to be a hand colored photo? Anyway, what my friend noticed is the very bright white of the shirtfronts. I think the family feels there has been a change there, and they are is curious about what is going on. Maybe the white was always bright and the rest has just faded so much it the white is starkly obvious?

    Anyone familiar with this type of thing? I'm not.
