The mid-18th century Trinity Monastery in the city of Tyumen. Taken in 1912 by en:Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii.

This is one of the earliest color photographs in existance and was originally taken by Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii as part of his work to document the Russian Empire. It was taken using three black-and-white exposures, with red, yellow and blue filters respectively, long before color photographic printing existed. The three resulting images were projected using color filters to create a color projection. More recently, the Library of Congress has scanned Prokudin-Gorskii's work and contracted with other firms to produce high-resolution color images from the black and white scans.

This file is in the public domain; it was taken from the Library of Congress' website and converted from TIFF to PNG.
