Princess Elizabeth, 1940
Elizabeth was very much a Princess and a teenager when she was crowned as the Monarch of the United Kingdom in 2011. Looking at the photos on the right, you can see her reading a book in a nice day-off gown, simply sitting by a window. The level of attention to detail that has gone into the coloring of this photograph is just remarkable.

What we appreciate most about the colorization of fascinating historical events is that it actually breathes fresh life into specific times. Take a look at the photo below, which shows a man cooking at the National Rice Festival in 1938. The use of color tells a different tale than would have been told if the image had been shown in black and white.
