RESTORATION AND COLORIZATION OF VINTAGE PHOTOGRAPH

The formal portrait of Russian officer wearing a parade uniform of the Imperial Guard regiment, displaying a golden sword with which he was decorated for personal bravery in combat was taken at the end of 19th or beginning of 20th century.

The photograph was carefully retouched to remove the overall fading and minor scratches. Following the retouching the photograph was lightly colorized to show the splendor of the uniform and award decoration.
