Vivid color photos, c.1910, of the Russian Empire
Several of these vivid color photos, many dating to about 1910, include textiles and other items possibly of interest to some who visit Turkotek: The Empire That Was Russia.

Added: here's a better source, with more info and further photos: Library of Congress version.

Hi Steve

Those are wonderful, and the color renditions are incredibly good. It's hard to believe that the photos were all taken before 1920.

Thanks
