      Isn’t there a word for the aesthetic yet?

        I’d like to know too. It evokes a strange sense of nostalgia.

            That’s why it’s strange. I never experienced it.

    Check out Autochrome images, some very intriguing early color photography using that process.

      I think it is an earlier process from 1880 called photochrom invented by Hans Jacob Schmid and close to lithography. It is an hand-coloring process. Autochrome came later and are closer to photography with additive color on a mosaic screen plate.

    It looks like a hand coloured photo to me, which were apparently popular in Japan for a while
