Default Colour images 1910 flowers..

The flowers of 1910 still bloom... (Variety of those spiffing dahlias
anyone?)

These images are all autochromes taken between about 1910 and 1920 by the
Belgian photographers Alfonse Van Besten, Charles Corbet, Georges Gilet, and
Paul Sano. They form part of the collection of Florent Van Hoof.
