Nice job of selective coloring. That small stove caught my attention, as the pot on it seems out of scale. Lol! Superb! tigs=^..^=

Love this one, Rob...very nostalgic and something I can relate to...I remember the old kitchens, stoves, sinks etc....looks like something out of the 40' and 50's...great work on the coloring.

Rob, taking into account that the original B&W image was already taken in/or before 1938, like to say (because of the kitchen equipment) that this kitchen was a relatively 'sophisticated' one, but it's not that important. The major subject however is the portrayed 'thirsty little lady'.
Saw by you, per usual perfectly, colorization, that you've added a playful/funny element in it as well by coloring the can with 'sunbrite cleanser' too. Artistic freedom with a funny touch!
S+F. Thanks again, my friend!

I'm curious about why Vachon took this photo - was it a statement about the kitchen, the water, or the young girl? Greenhills, Ohio was a planned community, created by the US government to provide modernist housing (and subsequent employment) during the depression. Unfortunately, there were restrictive covenants in the development that prevented minorities from purchasing homes there. There were four such communities built in the US under the Resettlement Administration, a short-lived program under FDR.

Great selective coloring.
Maybe this was to promote Sunbrite Cleanser because that is one VERY clean and uncluttered kitchen.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

When we were house hunting, back in 1990, we made a bid on a home built in 1950 that had a farm sink like this and over a dozen large white metal cabinets the spitting image of these, all in pristine condition. It was an old place but meticulously cared for and living there would have been like living in a museum period room (or in one of Rob's colorized worlds). Unfortunately we were outbid by $100 measly dollars and I feel certain those cabinets ended up in the dumps. It happens. Another place we looked at but knew we couldn't afford was a 1930's period room; the kitchen even had an original, 2"-thick solid laminated maple countertop. Lightly burned into that counter was the imprint of an antique iron for ironing clothes, the iron-type you heated up in a fireplace or stove, and someone had accidentally left it too long on the counter. A true "ghost" of a past history... and that I knew was torn out and replaced by, of all things... laminate. Ooooohhh, the humanity!

Coloring is just the right amount, unique scene, says a lot. Original concept in this series that truly gives credence to a picture is worth a thousand words.
