Old World St. Petersburg: Photochrome Antiquitech Photographs of the Lost (Tartary?) Empire Pre-1900

Howdy ya’ll. Today is a must see video. Russia has always fascinated me. From a young age, any time I would see a photograph of Russia I felt I was looking at another world. In today’s video I’d like to take you to that “other” world, as we look at over 100 of the oldest known photographs of the Russian capital city of St. Petersburg. Much to my amazement, for this video, every single image was said to be taken BEFORE the year 1900. The color photographs of pre-1900 are a form of antiquitech, known as “Photochrome”, which was a rare, expensive, and seldom used technology for painstakingly creating color photographs, which had to be done by hand. This is by far one of my favorite, and most dense videos that I have made so far this year. A big thanks to Bryan Goodlander for “Jarid’s Intro Song” and URBANINSTRUMENTALIST for “Echoes of Lost Voices” and “Memories of the Olde World”, a few of the amazing songs in the background of the video. I thank you all so much for being here, and I would absolutely love to hear what you have to say about St. Petersburg Russia in the comments down below! Please share this video, and enjoy!
