In the spring of 1896, during a trip to Russia for the coronation of Tsar Nicholas II, professional photographer František Kratki managed to create a whole series of interesting photographs that captured Russian life at the end of the 19th century. The photographer managed to visit Moscow, St. Petersburg and Nizhny Novgorod, finding interesting shots in each of these cities. Unfortunately, only a small part of the photographs of pre-revolutionary Russia from this trip have survived to this day.

Unlike color photographs of pre-revolutionary Russia taken by Proskudin-Gorsky, the works of František Kratka were painted much later than their publication. Nevertheless, these photographs are of no less interest to both professional historians and the general public.

A story in color: a dozen black and white photographs in color
We have already fallen in love with photo projects combining photographs of the past and the present. But story fans from the ColorizedHistory community love a colored story. Rather, the work of professional artists who approach their work in a complex way: they rely on historical information, aesthetic preferences and their own taste, when they return the color to old black and white photographs.
