While searching for DSLR cameras that I plan to buy “sometime soon”, I came across this color image from 1915 processed by Sergey Gorsky.

He used a very simple technique of shooting same frame on black and white film using 3 color filters red, blue and green and then superimposed to get colored pictures.

In contrast, it is hard to find color photography of India before 1960s.
