This channel began due to my interest in history and especially rare old vintage photos that really speak to the soul.
As a self-taught pianist & composer, I decided in December 2022 to make a video of these history photos set to my music. That first video received over 100,000 views and 1,500 subscribers in the first 3 weeks alone. The vast majority of comments were very positive. So, I'll keep making theses videos for as long as they are enjoyed.

Slight problem with the photo at 1:13 - how can the hut be 25,000 years old when the earth itself is only around 6000???? Unless you're stupid enough to believe in evolution........
There's been some grim conduct by humanity over the years. I'm going to include that giant tree stump shown at the end. That tree was probably over a thousand years old.
The photo entitled war was heart breaking. I absolutely love your contributions on RU-vid. You should have millions of followers. Your work is magnificent. 💙
Another great collection although I would have went with grab rather than grasp lol! The one entitled War brought tears to my eyes. An accurate depiction of the aftermath of war. As always beautiful accompanying music.
I have seen the before and after images of this man many times and have often wondered who this hero is. I can not thank you enough for making this video. War is a barbaric game for the rich , who sit back and watch in complete safety. His internal torment is so sadly evident in both his eyes and his art. 😢
When I was in school I did a history project for my gcse on fashion through the years 1800s-1950s and I loved it. I went to multiple museums for research and threw myself into it. I ended up getting an A+ just based on that. Watching these videos kinda takes me back to that time (I’m 51 now😂😂 so it was a good while ago but it’s really nice to see these familiar fashions that I saw back then so thanks for the memories ❤❤❤
I absolutely love your videos they are amazing I quite honestly have no clue why the worker standing on that high metal I have a really bad fear of heights that it makes me shiver 😂😂 what a brave/stupid man 😂 you literally couldn’t pay me enough to do that
The photo of the kid writing 'Liar' on the wall was staged. Unfortunately, staged photos were a very, very common thing back then, photographers doing their best to eke out a living this way.
I loved the Rawleighs cart! I'm Australian and never realised until now that it was a USA company. I remember how exciting it used to be when I was a child (I'm nearly 78) and the Rawleighs man arrived with his brown leather cases full of mysterious items. One particular remedy I remember was Chlorodine for diarrhea which came in a small bottle and was so strong we were only ever given 4 drops in a glass of water. It tasted disgusting but worked very quickly. I only discovered fairly recently (thanks to google) that it contained chloroform, laudanaum (from opium) and cannabis tincture!
@davidmitchel just because you're weak doesn't mean the rest of us are. Try actually growing a pair or are you just sympathetic to Nazis? I'm not American but I would assume you're a Democrat aren't you
The photo of the deer and the planes, they look like Russian planes. The photo of the SS 'camp guard' with the broken nose is actually an incorrect description I think. This man was a member of the Gestapo, the nazi state secret police, who was detained during the liberation of Paris. The Gestapo were responsible for and complicit in many, many crimes and acts of terror, including ethnic cleansing and the murder of allied prisoners of war, so any sympathy for the likes of him and the concentration camp guards for that matter, is misplaced in my opinion.
