| Colorized fotos from the old west |
| 2015-08-28 |
| The violence and romance of the Wild West is depicted on screen, but now, iconic historical pictures from the era have been brought to life by an eighteen-year-old student. Jared Enos, a student from North Kingston, Rhode Island, spent up to six hours digitally coloring each iconic picture - dating from 1864 to 1910 - to give a fresh look at the frontier period that began with English settlements in the early 17th century. A powerful reminder of a pivotal period in American history, these painstakingly colorized photographs range from portraits of legendary gunslinger Wild Bill Hickock and President Lincoln's assassination conspirator David E. Herold, to the cowboy, the quintessential symbol of the time. |
