Hey check this out,

I haven't actually checked the Wikipedia page of Tartaria for about year. Having gone on it just now, I see they added a new section.

Seeing as this information has spread further across the internet recently, their agents are in full force to shut it down.

The author isn't even trying to write an unbiased article, they are literally making a sad attempt to debunk it, because obviously they don't want anyone reading the article to research it for themselves. Genuinely one of the most poorly written entries I've seen on the site.

Just imagine what this bitchboy pushing buttons on Wikipedia looks like in real life.

What if one could time travel back to the turn of the 19th century? What if you were suddenly in the Russian Empire, what was once the heart of now occupied Tartary. What if you had also brought with you a modern digital camera and took some photographs for the rest of us to see?

Sergei Prokudin-Gorskii (Сергей Прокудин-Горский), who lived from 1863 until 1944, has done the closest we could come to seeing such photographs from a modern camera. He had traveled around pre-communist Russia in the early 1900s photographing his surroundings.

I must stress, these are NOT "colourized" photographs done by modern digital artists. These are three layer composites produced the way they would have been a century ago, the process is very simple however I will not explain this now. This is early colour photography.

The results are stunning.

I must stress that these are NOT colourized photographs.

These photos truly capture something that can otherwise only be captures in paintings of fantasy setting.

Again, *these are not colourizations*
