Description
Colorized photograph on a small glass panel depicting a forest with a path or road running through the center of the image. Entire image is filled with green, purple, and blue discoloration, as well as silvering and some sort of rippling effect. This slide is assumed to be an original lantern slide autochrome created by Harold A. Taylor, a California photographer and longtime resident of Coronado. Harold A. Taylor was born in the United Kingdom in 1878. In 1896, he immigrated to California, where he photographed Yosemite and other natural scenes in the state. He is credited with developing an early method of colorizing photographs at a time when color photography was just beginning to emerge. In 1912, Taylor moved to Coronado, CA where he established the Coronado Floral Association and continued his photography business. He died in 1960 in El Cajon, CA.
