New photographs have been released to mark the centenary the end of the First World War November 11, 1918. The UK's Press Association issued the selection 100 images a century ago. They were originally fading black and white images but have been painstakingly enhanced and recreated. They provide us a clearer idea of what happened and after the War, which killed nine million people. The photographs show wounded soldiers, prisoners war, fighting in the trenches, and scenes in London the day the Armistice was signed to end the War. One shows a soldier having a haircut a makeshift mountain barbershop the Albanian front.
A UK-based photo colouriser recreated the coloured photos. Tom Marshall told reporters he wanted to do something special to commemorate the 100-year anniversary World War 1, which the time was called "the war to end all wars". Mr Marshall said: "I began colourising black and white photos professionally 2014, coinciding the centenary of the outbreak of WW1 1914....To mark the centenary the end of the First World War, I decided to collate 100 images I've colourised tribute to the men and women who lived the war, and those who lost their lives." He added: "I included men and women several nationalities, races and religions, as the entire world was affected the war."
