A masterpiece. The unknown and unspoken story of one of the first inventors of the photography in colors. Warm, moving and fascinating photographs of Russia from the early 20th century. His project was to educate the youth, through colored photography, of the splendors and diversity of motherland. He still succeed at it today. A must read.
