67 Colorized Photos Captured Way More Than Expected

Colorized historical photos | May 18, 2020

Written by Jacob Shelton

These moments from history deserve a closer look...and nothing brings out the true life of these moments in time than color.  So we hand picked a collection of once black and whites, now in vibrant color.  
Warning, these rarely seen photos are not suitable for all audiences. 
While these gorgeous colorized photos of the past are definitely a must-see, not all of the stories are fit for consumption, so proceed with caution. Black and white definitely didn't do these photos justice... this colorized collection of photographs captures way more than expected.  
For mature audiences only. 

Meet the most interesting woman that ever lived ðŸŒ·

An international object of desire, Mata Hari was a dancer, a spy, and everyone who knows about her casts her in a different light. She’s been described as a courtesan, a feminist, an espionage wannabe, and a victim of the military’s need to create an enemy.
Regardless of how she was seen at the time, Mata Hari had a need to live a life constantly on fire. She threw herself towards excitement, which was her undoing in the end. Ted Brandsen, the choreographer and the director of the National Ballet explained:
What fascinated us is the story of a woman with an incredible lust for life and a powerful instinct to survive, and to reinvent herself and to transform herself. She had a lot of horrible things happen to her and she managed to somehow give a spin to it and find her way out.
