Famous photo of Jayne Mansfield and Sophia LorenEven though different forms of color photography have existed since the 1800's, color photography did not become popular with the general population until the price of color film came down in the 1970's. 

As a result of this trend, most of the famous historical photographs taken before the 1970's are in black and white. 

Modern technology gives us the ability to "colorize" these old photographs which gives us a fresh new look at what our world actually looked like back then. 

This video is a compilation of 53 famous historical photos that have been colorized, and it is truly spectacular to see history with so much more detail and feeling. 

Check out the video below and don't forget to let us know what you think and which photos are your favorites in the comments!
