These pictures are so beautiful - and absolutely priceless. 💖
The last picture is of a lady with a Scold's Bridle. A contraption to punish women for speaking back to a man or gossiping. 🥺
Yes
It had a nasty tongue depresser which went nearly to the back of the throat.
That is so awful - could induce reaching!@@nigelperry8863
Women suffocated in them cos they could not swallow saliva & drowned on it
Or maybe because she was already in jail and paying for her crimes and they couldn't make her stop disturbing the rest of the inmates.
The Sami guy in furs was a hottie
Renee Zelwegger is of Sami heritage.
@reallydarlings-se2xf is she or is this just an excuse for filler face? I don't know if you are a troll. Either way I would say that dude is God damn gorgeous and I hope he was an ancestor of my husband's
No, she is. Just some nickel knowledge. How would that make one a troll, " filler face" or not?
Fr
Yeah beautiful timeless and elegant style
So many great photos, but the one that stuck in my mind was the Revolutionary War Vet who lived long enough to be able to have his photo taken.
This is the best I’ve seen so far. So clear
These pictures are an absolute treasure
Very nice. Thank you for your hard work to compile all those photos.
Beautiful photographs. The colorists who worked on them did amazing work.
In the picture of Darwin on his horse, the horse looks like it’s evolving…😊😊
I liked the Man from Norway and the Siamese man. They were pretty hot for back then. Beautiful photos❤
Two VERY sexy men !!❤ Right ??🎉
This was very educational and a trip back to my high school history classes in the 1960s. Excellent colorizations which really brought to life historical figures. Thank you.
Wonderful photos and I was able to read the inscription in my own time!
A wonderful collection of beautifully colorised photographs! Thank you!♥
Rudolph Rustimo at 9:53 had a form of dwarfism. This photo was likely taken when he was older than a boy. He was shown around northern Europe as an oddity, a sensationalized bit of entertainment. The princess did arrange for him to be financially supported, but on top of his disability, he developed alcoholism (can you blame him, poor man?) which hastened his demise.
I had the same idea while watching his head.
Seems to me he was an odd choice for a playmate. Male, foreign, probably didn't even speak her language. What the hell could they play? Dolls? Word games? He was a PET. Like an animal.
@@xquisite7791 Before being gifted to the Austrian princess, he was in Germany, having been gifted to a German noble family from Egypt and learned the language there. So he could talk with her when he was with her and had been taught how to interact in a wealthy household.
He replaced the monkey she had as it was biting people and not well, and so was sent to the zoo. Yes, very distasteful, but getting a child to play with a rich child was not uncommon back then so they didn't think anything of it.
Poor children in Europe were also taken as playmates, willingly signed over by parents as an opportunity for the child, as it gave them a chance to grow into a better position within the household and earn wages and a craft. Parents would consider their child very lucky to do that because the option was to be sent into the mines or other very rigorous labour that had a short life span. That was always a practice in most cultures around the world.
It was how apprenticeships worked as well. The father would sign over his sons, at a relatively young age (i.e. 10 - 12), to someone to teach him them a skill. Life for kids was hard regardless of colour and origin. Although being captured into slavery is distinct of course, I'm just explaining so you see how children were used overall and the mindset of adults.
He would not really be alone with her; a governess would be around to watch them while she did her sewing etc. Rudolph accompanied Marie on walks, performed servant duties, conducted administrative tasks, and later learned the bookbinding craft. After she grew older, he also became a Court Announcer as well. The princess ensured he received wages.
Sadly, his health deteriorated in part due to alcoholism and it was written, poor cognition as well. People with dwarfism often have other related health issues and the doctors of the time would not have had the knowledge to ensure his good health. He died young at 31.
Although what he went through was wrong,, it's good that he has not been lost to time. His story has been told and retold, and there are now web pages about him. Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to answer you properly.
@@hilaryc3203 Thank you for that very informative post! I appreciate you taking the time to tell this young man's story and give us his background and experience.
The photos of African and Irish slave children in the Americas bring a sense of love and unity. Look how determined and strong their faces are... The color makes it that much more real. Thank you.
@7:07 The Yeoman Warder, we know them better as Beefeater's.
Stunning in my minds eye
Loves seeing Chekhov as a young will others smiling
Thankyou for sharing your historical information and photographs.
Agree, Anton was a very handsome man as well as writer!❤
Alexander Dumas besides living in 1859 wrote The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo.
Yah, we know…
I have to wonder what was going on in the head of the black union soldier sitting in front of the slave auction house in Atlanta. All the fighting and the suffering and starvation of the war and when he gets to this place, I wonder if he is reinvigorated with why they were fighting the war. Very stark reminder.
These are all magical in that they make the past seem so near and vivid, but my favourite is the one of Chekov in the group photo, apart from the bearded man at the back it’s hard to remember that these people are long dead, the photograph looks as if it could have been taken recently, their faces are so alive and full of expression and modern
Fantastic,liked the song”Pray for the dead & the dead will pray for you”
Prayers for those in Purgatory shortens your time there too 😊
Those are the words? Oy! And u just got that dirge out of my head. Not something you want to hear before sleep.
Scolds bridle. Used to punish/discourage women from gossip, nagging or if their husband says they talk too much. Didn’t keep them from wielding a broom handle or pan though.
No, she was a criminal in jail. Nobody reads the explanation?
@@CanaryCaiashe’s talking generally. Literally do one google search before speaking. Maybe hold your tongue next time. Get it?
Stange music choice... a burial march..
Why? I expect most of the subjects are dead.
They have a scolds bridle in Norwich Castle Museum. It actually has a piece of metal with a spike on which goes under the tongue. Quite barbaric really.
It would be painful even without a spike. Thank you for the information. Women were considered part of a man's 'goods and chattels' and were even sold at market sometimes!
@@JenniferMcCartney-nb6lt I know, as a man I am ashamed of the behaviour of our forefathers towards women throughout history. Hopefully things are getting better. Still a way to go but we’re getting there!
Men weren't forced to wear a bridle, they were simply beaten severely for not being able to control their mouths or their speech. @@technicolour0
@@JenniferMcCartney-nb6ltand women could sell the men as well
I’m so sorry to have to point this out. I’ve seen women who need this
Custer at West Point pic, he looks like a scared kid😮
Wow, so many influential people living in a time so long ago. I loved it! One of the horses in a photo from 1864 looked like you could touch it, it was so real. Thank you!
Beautifully restored! ❤
My two favorites were the photos of Anton Chekhov! I read most of his works through AP English in High School! Thank you so for all these amazing photos!!❤❤
Color brings so much more life and relatability to the past
Absolutely!!
I found the first underwater photograph fascinating!
2:14. Didn’t know they had white children as slaves then! 😮. All fascinating!
Might have been some outside interference going on there.
@@wsaut oh yes. 👍
Could be a light-skinned biracial child.
MANY slave owners "took advantage" of their slaves-in more ways than one. Very few, if ANY, received any "benefit" they could "use later in life" from being enslaved as some want taught.
@@vernalc2449 Know what you mean 😢
0:34 "the Old Samurai" looks like he could be "The Old Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson" in about 30 years..
That people not reacting to the Scold's Bridle, says a lot. People think that picture is a joke picture but it was how they treated women back then, with huge disrespect. This was used on slaves as well, same time period roughly, but yes it was a very evil practice. Horrific. Also, people think the war the West is promoting against Russia is not new, we see this in the image with the man without an arm, British man, fought in the crimean war back in 1854. If people paid attention to history they would know that the West have tried getting into Russia more than one time. Wish they would just stop. x
Amazing collection of colorized photos . Well done ! ❤
It should be Tsesarevna Maria Feodorovna and the picture was not taken in the 1880s but rather in the early 1870s , when Maria was in her mid twenties.
0:53
very well done!
Gr8 collection.
All of them are quite interesting to see.
The enhancement on these photographs are pretty amazing. The detail, in fact is unbelievable. The originals did not have that level of resolution. So, how did they develop it?
5:02 Look at the penmanship on the mug shots. I don't think there is many people who write like that anymore.
I was so impressed with your work that I had to subscribe. Your colours are very nice without the automatic blue-green tinting of people's teeth (can you explain how that used to happen? I can't figure it out) I was especially impressed with your treatment of the Fijian man; he looks completely natural! Very rare. Thank you for taking us on this trip down memory lane!
oh! those freckles of that confederate solder were so sharp and real .
Very interesting
really good selection of photos.
❤ love this!
All very impressive a few looked like they were just taken.
Really nice selection of photos!!
Not sure which ones were unsuitable for which viewers...
Beautifully done.
Fabulous production.
The woman is forced to wear a scold’s bridle probably cos her husband mistreats her & she answers him back!
It's for her own good. To protect herself from her own ' hysteria ' Those Victorians knew what they were doing. Obviously. ( sarcasm )
Try it today & see who ends up hysterical…the man hanging by his bollocks!!
She was an inmate in jail, a criminal. Obviously she was disturbing the rest of the inmates.
Perhaps. But then, perhaps not.
Amazing.
The samurai commander is just terrifying.
Yes, I spent a bit focusing on his eyes. Here is a man who deals death as his existence. In another place and time, he might have been an English knight, or a commander in the army. Not an easy life, nor easy to behold.
Back then, streets were crowded with all kinds of people and children. Now they are empty most of the time. Only at rush-hour in the centers jam-packed with cars, busses and bikes. Still hardly kids, at least not playing.
People in cities mostly lived crammed together in tenement buildings.
The only place to really go was outside.
And there were no real sources of amusement like televisions, video games, the Internet, or radios.
If I wanted to read, I would have had to go to a library. if I wanted to listen to music, I would have had to go see a concert. If I wanted to hang out with my friends, I would have had to go see them. Etc.
@@Wolffur Connections, communities, consideration, commitment, contact. But also, gossip, jealousy, fighting......all human emotions. We in the Nethetlands we have a wholee scala of words to address naughty streetboys. When old people refresh their memories they are kind of proud what caprioles they acted out in the streets. I do have memories about that streetlife. Shops presented themselves at their outstanding best. Especially wit Chridtmas and Eastern. But then, I guess under the influence of managers and bookkeepers, all that faded awsy and instead of 'more' we end up with little. Hardly any choice in any aspect of shops nor the goods they sell. So disappointing. A person has to go to Asia to find that 'spirit' again, the hustle and bustle in the streets, the entrepreneurship among these people!
@@annemaria5126 For variety of products and a view of entrepreneurship I like to go to the flea market. It's lots of fun.
Wow is is irritating, because the colour brings the past into the present. Great work- thx
The most beautiful and realistically colored historic photos I have yet seen!
FANTASTIC! THANK YOU❤❤
A 'Scold's bridle ' . The bar in front of the mouth had a small plate that projected into the mouth to act as a tongue depressor and the whole device was locked on the head.
Horrifying!
Good for conversation narccisists!
Bless that lady’s heart you could see the fear and pain in her face from wearing that bride over her face and I believe it goes in their mouth to hold her tongue. Just devastating. The other photos were quite beautiful. God bless women’s rights.
The Sami man looks like Di Caprio
Ha! I said the exact same thing! Perhaps a future role for him? 😂
Alas he has long since turned to dust.
Isaac and Rosa, how beautiful and so sad.
2:06 The pain in these kids eye. Eyes of grown up that went through hell at like 11. Sad.
The Scold's Bridle would be an asset in courts of law to inhibit the abusive or impenetrably stupid loquacity of certain defendants, male or female!
I know exactly who you are talking about. Attempts to muzzle him legally have so far failed.
Actually, judges would often threaten unruly defendants with it.
"The price of freedom is the toleration of idiots." - Dr. Bertrund Russell.
@@Wolffur But idiots who take over the country and create a Reich or thrust the world into war put the lie to that.
I do admire Charles Darwin's yellow check ensemble. It does him proud!
Interesting video thank you
Brilliant photos
I believe the movie Brimstone had a woman wearing a scolds bridle.
5:08 Ryan Gosling is a time traveler
The girl at the end is wearing a "brank". The devise is worn to stop the wearer, male or female, from talking. "I'll brank ye!" was a warning commonly given in court by Judges to unruly prisoners.
It was more commonly known as a Scold's bridle, although it's usage was in no wise limited to scolds (loud, mean people)
Yes!@@Wolffur It is also called a "Shrew stifle". Back in the day when men "owned" their wives, it was legal for a man to use one to quiet a nagging wife.
@@ike3094 True, but it's actual usage was generally a community thing, like the dunking stool. Generally, nagging wives were quickly quieted down with a slap or two, in much the same manner as children. As Morrasey put it "Barbarism begins in the home."
But it's worth pointing out that it's usage was by no means solely for women, but men were usually flogged for public disorder in addition to it's use, particularly if he was put in the stocks, to be seen by all.
The la river it was lovely in 1950
I blew my youngest sons mind when I told him that his Great-great grandmother was born in 1887 and that she actually died when I was 17 (1987) I spend a lot of time at her house when I was a child and she taught me to peel potatoes when I was around 6-7 years old.
Beautiful photos. I wonder whether they had good lives. I hope so.
Thank you
Magnificent collection. Useless to ask about the insistence with the Funeral March?
I love the one with the young man with the sperm whales tooth necklace. That is a stunning unforgettable photo.
Great photos.
How are colors added to these old photos?
How are you able to get such crispness, clarity and accuracy with your colorization without the typical fading, or smudging of most other colorized videos, pictures and films?
I recognized the uniform , of the young man at 12:41 , but I didn't know it was Custer !! He was a vain , stubborn , soldier , during The Civil War , some might say he was brave , but there is a fine line between ,stupidity and bravery . I say , concerning what he led his men into,😢 later at The Battle of Greasy Grass ,( Litttle Big Horn ), that Custer was too set on a victory , and he led his men into a massacre !!! No hero to me !!!😢😢 I liked most of the other historical photos , though .
This is why I dont like the colorization of black and white photos. Example; The picture of General Custer shows him with Red hair. He was blonde man. In fact that was one of his vanity traits. His blonde yellow hair. Messing with history once again.
I dont think eminent scientist Charles Darwin at any point of his life would or even could have worn that outlandish acid yellow vest and pants combo, mens civilian clothing has always been sober muted tones until1960s unless for a stage performer I could go with a gentler mustard (brownish yellow) vest but your yellow is too much
The Victorians were famous for their eye-popping (to us) colors, actually. Especially after the invention of aniline dyes. We think of the colors as having been muted because most dyes were “fugitive” which is to say they faded over time, in both fabrics and photographs (it was common to hand tint photographs prior to the common use of color film.) It’s quite possible that the bright yellow would have been accurate.
It’s hard to know, of course, looking only at a black and white or a sepia tone photo. Whatever it was showed up as almost white in the photo, contrasted with almost black. A dark brown/black with yellow is possible. Other combinations might have been possible too, including red instead of black, since many reds show up black in a black and white photo.
Those of higher class (as was Darwin) often chose brighter colors because they were harder to achieve and displayed their wealth. Those of lower classes often used cheaper or more natural dyes, or castoff clothing that had faded through use, laundering, or sun exposure. A photographic portrait was also a Very Big Deal, so people would put in their very best, often newest, clothes for the occasion.
Check out articles or books on the fashion history of the Victorian age if you are interested. I learned much of this from creating costumes for the Dickens Fair, a crafts fair in California set in London between about 1840 and 1865.
@@DawnDavidson I studied Dress and Fashion at college which is where I learned about the dyes (pre aniline)being more muted,, Dickens who was not just a writer but a showman would likely have worn more flamboyant clothing than a scholar and scientist like Darwin who spent a lot of his time amongst the dons at Oxford
Thank you for a great image collection, BUT c'mon now, how would any of us be "surprised" by that revelation? That was the ONLY obvious reason for the bridle. What an obvious way to get people to just skip to the end, not watch it through. No apostrophe needed for plural nouns (princes).
Scold’s bridle…punishment for gossip etc.
Could use that today…an online version
Thank you for this. I am European ( and good educated I dare say) but this vid is very special and I have never seen such splendid photo’s in my life!❤
The last photo of the Irish woman from County Armagh with the Scold's Bridle. Apparently not enough of them manufactured for the 21sr Century!
So slaves aren’t what they said..?
Great pix but lugubrious music.
Chopin's Funeral March. Totally inappropriate. Not all of these scenes are suffering or horror.
👍👍
Incredible...crazy stuff! How do you own these photos (or copies of them, I don't know), where? In the meantime, however, haven't you told us why there is a photo of a woman with a disturbing iron helmet between her head and her teeth, like torture, perhaps an ancient 19th century device prototype of a device for straightening teeth?
There may be such a device for straightening teeth, but there are examples of this particular device still surviving in museums in England. This one features a tongue of metal that passes over the tongue in order to restrict movement, thereby stopping speech. From other comments, I've learned this was done to women who talked back to their husbands or gossiped.
😮
Its one of those contraptions to punish women for gossiping
boatman from Siam? whoa!!!! they had digital cameras? you lost me!
She gossiped too much
13:04 Charles Darwin's fashion sense didn't evolve very well.
Yes today we hide powerty - it still exsists !
AND war - it must end and we can
Ask for peace !!!!!!
everyone looks just like they do today, but in costume.
lol, Fredericksburg still pretty much looks that way, from the river. The church is still there, too 😉
Tereza Cristina do Brasil❤😊
5:39 How did kids go from this to the spoiled screen babies we have today. Little MEN!
The woman with the metal contraption on her head that also surrounds her mouth, was punishment for woman whose husband bands considered them too verbose or nags.
Coloring in old photos is ruining them. Just my 2cents.
That peaky blinder looks like Tom Holland
