This subject might have come up before here, if so, sorry, also don't exactly know if this is the right area to post this.

Anyhow... This is a link to an article (from 2010) and pictures of 100 year old tri-color glass plates created by a russian photographer in the 1909-1912 era. Quite remarkable I think. Enjoy:

Anything more about these pictures would be interesting, including of course if they are truly genuine.

Yes, this has been posted here before but it's always nice to look at them again. The colour sure is beautiful. Some of them look like they could have been taken today.
