		<description><![CDATA[These color photographs were taken between 1909 and 1912. Supported by Tsar Nicholas II, photographer Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii (1863-1944) photographed many aspects of the Russian Empire. Prokudin-Gorskii&#8217;s specialized camera captured three black and white images of the same scene, using red, green and blue filters. Subsequently, the photos were recombined and projected with filtered lanterns to show the color images seen here. Yes, these photos really were taken 100 years ago. Hundreds of color images are made available by the Library of Congress, which purchased the original glass plates back in 1948. See more here: Russia in color, a century ago]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Someone recently asked, "How do you restore the color to a faded watercolor painting?" That's a good question. Can you restore the color to a faded watercolor painting? Fading can be an issue with any type of artwork that uses paper as its canvas.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, so I&#8217;m doing a half-hearted, one-eyed (because some days the web seems more boring than other days) internet surf, when I come across some pictures of Iceland. What a beautiful place. There&#8217;s a website, Art-Iceland, that hosts some amazing pictures. Art-Iceland describes the Reykjavik photo on the left: &#8220;Looking out on Reykjavik from the church bell tower you can see typical Icelandic architecture. The houses seem to be thrown together from different eras and different cultures!&#8221; Art-Iceland is a website worth checking out.]]></description>
