I added some colour to these old photos from the 1860s,I wanted to see what colour the dresses would have been as i think they are so beautiful but I don't think it looks realistic,does anyone agree?

Thought this group might appreciate these—one engraved with an “E,” the other with a crescent moon and star. Believed to date from around 1900.
The portraits are still inside. No idea who they were, but someone wanted to keep them close.
