This looks terrifying both in color and in black-and-white.
Dynamichrome is a project dedicated to digitally reconstructing historical photos in color, offering a brighter glimpse into the past.
One photo even shows the Eiffel Tower in its original reddish-brown color. It's been painted multiple times since then.
Dynamichrome's director, Jordan Lloyd, teamed up with Retronaut website founder Wolfgang Wild to create a book featuring 130 of these photographs. "The Paper Time Machine" is currently being crowdfunded.
