I found this autochrome photo (very early colour photography) from the early 1900s-1910s of a woman in a dress that appears to be inspired by Empress Josephine’s coronation gown! I am so in shock because this genuinely looks like a photo of Josephine.

#I love autochrome photos so much #they look so dreamy #and there’s something about this one in particular that I adore #empress josephine #josephine bonaparte #josephine de beauharnais #napoleon #napoleonic era #history #fashion history #autochrome

Alexander Palace, Tsarskoye Selo, Russia, 1917,

A rare and unique set of Autochrome color photograph plates, taken by Alexander Zehest in 1917 of the interiors of the Alexander Palace, including both the Parade rooms and the personal rooms of the Imperial Family.

The Autochrome process was a rare and difficult one, invented by the Lumiere Brothers of France in 1903 and marketed in Europe and the US starting in 1907. The autochromes, 140 in total, were made in 1917 by the military photographer Andrei Zeest, who was invited by the art historian George Loukomski, Head of Tsarskoye Selo Inventory Commission. The Alexander Palace interiors were photographed in August-September, soon after the Tsar’s family left for exile.
