► 19th Century Photographs Brought To Life
► Welcome back everyone. If you enjoy looking at old photographs, please stay tuned for some exclusive content coming up on this video. After receiving such a good feedback on two of our earlier videos on Victorian portraits, we wanted to bring you something even more unique today. We've gathered a collection of 19th-century portraits that appear to come to life as they glide across your screen. The portraits were given a quick restoration, colorization and some facial motion, using some of the latest tools in AI technology. I hope you find this presentation enjoyable, since it was a labour of love to create. As always, we value your opinions and comments, so please don't hold back. Let's get started!
Please check the video to see fashion, clothing and hairstyle of 19th century men and women in a mixture of daguerreotypes, ambrotypes and tintypes.

They're being remembered in such a beautiful way. Seeing them fade in and out of life was haunting. This was absolutely powerful. Maybe I'm just in that mood today due to the weather but...I really felt impacted by this.

The first woman is absolutely beautiful. It’s amazing what you have done here. People, long forgotten, brought back to life for just enough time for me to feel engaged by their presence as if I knew them somehow, but no, they are 173 year old photos. Photos of people who’s memory is forgotten because everybody who knew and loved them is also long gone. This will be you and me one day, forgotten because everybody who loves us will also be long gone and forgotten. This kinda makes me want to enjoy my time here that little bit more. Our lives are literally a blip. The people in these photos had feelings, emotions, good days, bad days, jobs, favourite meals, pet hates, friends and places they loved to visit. They probably thought about what the world would be like in the year 2000, yet here we are in 2023, looking at their forgotten faces. It’s breathtaking. I love portraits like these. Keep up the good work

One moment we are living a full, vibrant life and in the blink of an eye we're a faded photograph that may one day be labeled "unidentified woman." So much life captured in so brief a moment.

I was a costume designer for a costume shop in Chico, CA and one day a young man walked in to see if I could make a Confederate uniform for him. He said he had collected the buttons and medals at re-enactment events and online. When he pulled out the photo to show me, I was speechless. The young man in the old photo looked like he could be this man’s twin! I worked with a tailor researching fabrics and techniques to create the most exact replica for him. I still remember him to this day.

@donaldbrown5003 Год назад

I'm an extremely empathetic person and facial/body expression plays an important part on how a perceive others and the truths their lives hold. This video was so over powering with emotions I began sobbing. It was as someone had woken each person for just a small fraction of time to reveal the life they lived with just one expression. I saw happiness, hurt , pain, lies, determination, disappointment, joy every face showed for a moment the truth of each life. It was almost too much for me to witness but I could not stop watching and I could not stop crying. It was actually the beautiful pain of living of our truths even for just a moment.

@greenrage27 Год назад

I don't know why, but I was brought to tears while watching this as if for a moment we observed exactly what the photographer did as they looked through the viewport on that day so many decades ago. These were real people who meant something to someone at some time. Even if we don't know them, and we don't know what type of person they were, we briefly were given the honor of standing in on this moment in their lives, and just for a few seconds, they mattered again to somebody. I wonder how much their spirits rejoice in you showing how they once lived. This is one of the most beautiful and honorable creations I've ever seen. Thank you and God bless!

@TheUltimateSeeds 2 года назад

there's something genuinely wrong with you. the animation is the soulless part. check the skin tone... it's always too flat, and in several instances color wasn't even added, or with the last guy everything was just washed out in blue. then there's the constant blinking and disturbing attempts at simulating head movement. and every single one of them has blue eyes... even the black people. seeing them fade back to the original should be a relief, because the animations are disturbing if you look closely.

@Kai0nTheMoon Год назад

I was not expecting to be brought to tears by a random click on a RU-vid video. Seeing these folks 'brought back to life' for a moment was breathtaking. And to think, none of these people had even the slightest idea that such a thing would be happening to them so very far into the future as they were sitting there posing for their portraits. We tend to think of people from the distant past almost like a different species when in reality, they were the same as us; they worried about money, got butterflies over love and cried over loss. As a middle aged man with no children or family left, I figure that my many photos albums will probably just wind up in a landfill some day. But I hope that at least some images of me survive and are perhaps able to be 'brought back to life' for a brief moment in centuries to come, should humanity even survive that long. *And may I add that the little dog at 6:00 really overwhelmed me with emotion. I know a very special small dog who could very well be that dog's great x12 grandson. The way people live and the technology they use may change over time but even in ancient times, dogs have always just been dogs - pure, innocent and loving. If you have the means in your life, then please adopt (don't shop) a dog from a shelter. In doing so, you will instantly become the best human being on Earth in someone's eyes. 🐕

And it also brought tears to my eyes because my late paternal grandfather was born in 1899 the last year of the 19th century and my maternal grandparents was born in 1900 and 1904 with my parents and uncle living through a lot of history born in 1921, 1927, 1931 that are now in history books taught in school. The Flapper era, gangsters people have heard about in their heyday, radio shows, the invention of sound in movies, the Great Depression, the first fireside chats etc. Makes one feel kind of antique.

@@TheNoiseySpectator Due to the technology of the time, I believe he did it by starting off the exposure, running round to the front of the camera and posing for it, then he ran back round again to stop it. This was back when photographic plates took a few minutes to expose. I see that the video description lists the names of the subjects, but this particular picture just had that extra interesting fact about it. I only learned it recently when I saw something about it on TV.

I don't think I have ever seen a video on RU-vid which has made me feel so many emotions. At first, the images coming to life piqued my curiosity and then quality of the restorations had me in awe. Then I began to wonder how you decided to portray the details of the portraits (i.e. hair color, skin tone, eye color, ect.). After a few few minutes of these musings, it hit me like a ton of bricks that I was missing the whole point of what you have done. As each portrait "came to life", I felt as though each PERSON in the photographs was reaching out 170 years into the future and saying "I was here...the same as you". As each of them faded back into their still image , I couldn't help but feel extremely sad about the lives that have passed before us and my own mortality.

My friend, the fear of death is something we all have, do you know what death actually is? Its wages, wages for our sins, you see we've all sinned against a rightoues God, and deserve punishment, but because God loved us so much He sent His Son to die instead and if you will believe in who Jesus is and what He did for you, and turn your heart away from sin and towards God (repent) you will be saved

Breast feeding is important to the shape of the face, cheekbones and jawline. It's more work for an infant to suckle breast than bottle, so muscles and bones develop better. Processed baby food doesn't provide enough chewing to aid in producing a better developed face. Trust me, I'm not making this stuff up. Ideally, a child should breastfeed until at least two and begin chewing a teeth emerge. The people in these photos were obviously raised this way. You can see it in their facial shape and bones.
