A color photo from 1913. Yes, 1913. Shot by Mervyn O’Gorman (1871–1958), Christina in a Red Cloak, The National Science and Media Museum in Bradford, West Yorkshire, UK.
O’Gorman used the autochrome process, invented in France by Auguste and Louis Lumière. The museum: “The large aperture setting has reduced the background to near abstraction, and the lack of any obvious period references gives this image a remarkably modern feel.”
