The Autochrome Lumière was an early color photography process patented in 1903 by the Lumière brothers in France and first marketed in 1907 the year these photographs were taken. (x)

Invented by the Lumière Brothers, Autochrome was the first color photographic process to be marketed. As soon as it was put on the market in 1907, it was an immediate success with amateur and professional photographers. This is the photographic medium used by Albert Kahn for his Archives de la planète, the world’s first global report in color. Among the early adopters stands out a singular personality Antonin Personnaz (French, 1854 – 1936)  is indeed one of the most important collectors of Impressionism, and is one of the great benefactors of national museums.

His 1937 bequest includes 142 first-rate works (Pissarro, Guillaumin, Sisley, Degas, Renoir, Toulouse-Lautrec, etc.), including Monet’s famous Pont d’Argenteuil, which are today among the masterpieces presented at the Musée d’Orsay and at the Musée Bonnat-Helleu. Less well known is his status as an active member of the French Photography Society (from 1896) and of the Society of Excursions for Photography Amateurs (from 1900). As such, he is at the origin of a distinction awarded to the Lumière Brothers for the invention of the autochrome plate, whose grainy and pointillist rendering seems to him to join the research of Impressionist painters, and whose aesthetic qualities he ardently defends. From 1907, Antonin Personnaz assiduously practiced autochromy himself and produced more than a thousand plates, which his widow donated to the Société française de photographie. Despite its interest in the history of Impressionism, this collection has been little studied and shown. However, because of its proximity to artists, Personnaz’s photographic work is of exceptional interest.

Sitting on the riverbank 118 years ago: This Edwardian couple are waiting for the fish to bite, way back in 1906. I've enhanced this beautiful autochrome, photographed by J.R.Hartley (not really! It's by the Lumière brothers). It is original colour, not colourised.

Belgium on the left, Senegal on the right.

Welcome to the Half-Finals!

Today's uniforms are drastically opposed in colour, with Belgium's very dark blue (appearing black on pictures) and the Senegalese tirailleurs in red, blue and yellow accents.

Interestingly, this bracket shows the two processes used to get colour photography in the early 1900s. The one on the left, depicting the Belgian soldier, is the cheapest one; the photograph was first taken in black and white and then re-coloured by hand using various media like watercolours or crayons. The one on the right, brand new at the time of the First World War, is a Lumière-patented process called "autochrome" which allows the picture to be taken directly in colour.
