i know what you're talking about but i don't have the link anymore :(
I think the really crazy thing about the guy was that the photos weren't "corized" but that the guy figured our some way of takin color photos that was years ahead of it's time

"We know that Prokudin-Gorskii intended his photographic images to be viewed in color because he developed an ingenious photographic technique in order for these images to be captured in black and white on glass plate negatives, using red, green and blue filters"
