Hand-colouring refers to any method of manually adding colour to a black and white image. Hand-colouring is also known as hand painting.
Typically, watercolours, oils, crayons or pastels, and other paints and dies are applied to the image surface using brushes, fingers, cotton swabs or airbrushed. Hand-coloured photographs were most popular in the mid- to late-19th century before the invention of colour photography and some firms specialized in producing hand-coloured photographs.
