To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of war, The
Open University has enlisted the help of a photograph restoration expert,
to 'colourise' some of the unique and interesting photos that were taken
during the time. Although the original images were only available in black
and white, colour has been added retrospectively to help bring them to
life. |
