A century ago, there was a race to make the first color photos. Now there’s a race to save them. The revolutionary invention of autochromes changed photography. As those pictures decay, they're revealing a new kind of beauty.

Grace Linden explores the Archives de la Planète — his sprawling, global project to document and preserve the fast-changing world — and uncovers a latent nostalgia in the hyperreal hues of early color photography.
