Description
English: A picture of Mohammed Alim Khan (1880-1944), Emir of Bukhara, taken in 1911. This is an early color photograph taken by Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii as part of his work to document the Russian Empire. Three black-and-white photographs were taken through red, green and blue filters. The three resulting images were projected through similar filters. Combined on the projection screen, they created a full-color image. Prokudin-Gorskii also made color prints from some of his images and published a number of them as inserts in Fotograf-Liubitel, a photographic magazine he edited from 1906 to 1909. His 1908 color portrait of Leo Tolstoy was also published as a postcard. In recent years, the Library of Congress has made high-resolution scans of their collection of Prokudin-Gorskii's original glass plate negatives and contracted with outside agencies to produce high-quality color-corrected images from the black-and-white scans. This example is a simple color composite of the three original images shown at right and has not been color-corrected, retouched, or artificially enhanced in any way.
Deutsch: Fotografie von Alim Khan, aufgenommen 1911. Diese frühe Farbfotografie wurde aufgenommen von Sergei Michailowitsch Prokudin-Gorski im Rahmen seiner Arbeit, das Russische Reich fotografisch zu dokumentieren. Für dieses Bild wurden drei Schwarzweißfotos jeweils durch einen roten, grünen und blauen Filter gemacht (zu sehen am rechten Rand). Diese drei Einzelbilder wurden durch Filter der gleichen Farbe projiziert und ergaben so ein Farbbild (links).
