I’ve Colorized These Photos Of Street Life In Victorian London From Over 140 Years Ago

我把这些140多年前维多利亚时代伦敦街头生活的照片上了色

In the mid-1870s, Scottish photographer John Thomson captured the daily toil and struggle of the 'street folks' of London, in a series of photos that laid the foundations for modern photojournalism. Working with a radical journalist called Adolphe Smith, Thomson produced a monthly magazine 'Street Life in London' from 1876 to 1877.

19世纪70年代中期,苏格兰摄影师约翰·汤姆森(John Thomson)拍摄了伦敦“街头平民”的日常劳作和挣扎,为现代新闻摄影奠定了基础。汤姆森与一位名叫阿道夫·史密斯(Adolphe Smith)的激进记者合作,从1876年到1877年出版了一本名为《伦敦街头生活》(Street Life in London)的月刊。

The photographs Thomson took depict real life in London, showing the poorest of the poor and how they managed to survive, in scenes that could have been written by Charles Dickens. Smith would interview the subjects of the photos, often preserving the unique dialects and expressions of a world now long forgotten, and the photos lent authenticity to his text. Thomson and Smith published their photos and interviews in a book in 1878 from which the following images were taken.

汤姆逊拍摄的照片描绘了伦敦的真实生活,展示了穷人中最穷的人,以及他们是如何生存下来的,这些场景本可以由查尔斯•狄更斯(Charles Dickens)撰写。史密斯会采访这些照片的拍摄对象,经常保留这个早已被人遗忘的世界的独特方言和表达方式,这些照片也为他的文章增添了真实性。汤姆逊和史密斯在1878年出版的一本书中发表了他们的照片和采访,并从中获得了以下图片。

I believe that colorizing images can allow a modern audience to engage better with the subject, especially in an age where we see thousands of images on a news feed every day. Color brings out hidden details, which are often lost in black and white, and it causes the viewer to pause and look. This is not to say that the original images are not fascinating in their own right, but I believe that the addition of color helps to enhance the scene and forces the viewer to spend more time looking into it and reading the accompanying caption.

我相信彩色图像可以让现代观众更好地参与到主题中来,特别是在我们每天都能在新闻源中看到成千上万的图像的时代。颜色会把隐藏的细节显露出来,而这些隐藏的细节往往会消失在黑白之中,它会让观看者停下来观看。这并不是说原始图像本身就没有吸引力,但我相信,添加的色彩有助于增强场景,迫使观众花更多的时间看它和阅读伴随的字幕。
