    There is something incredibly sad about hearing 14yo Anastasia Nikolaevna, who took goofy pictures of herself and sent them to friends, then hearing how she was executed in a revolution. If you read it in a history book, you would have no feeling. It would be "There was a royal family, they were executed", but actually seeing her photos, and seeing her be a 14yo girl and then hearing about her execution. That is so much sadder. She was just a kid.

    The pictures taken by the Tsar's daughter are so fascinating.

      Art in the Amarna period (when Akhenaten was pharaoh and Bek was chief sculptor) was weird. If you look at carvings of Akhenaten, you'll see a lot of the same sort of "dumpy potato boy" imagery. Though Akhenaten tended to have thinner arms and legs, he still had the belly. Bek refers to himself on a carving as ""the apprentice whom His Majesty taught". In my archaeology studies, my professor indicated that the implication is that the Pharaoh demanded a more naturalistic style than was common in Egyptian art up to this point. You can still see a bit of the belly on Tutankhamen's sculptures, and he's the pharaoh that followed Akhenaten. Whether this is a stylistic issue or a more realistic image of the pharaoh is up for debate, given that Tutankhamen was quite young and would be unlikely to have developed a paunchy belly yet.
      It's also worth noting that the plump men with more idealistic women is fairly common. You'll still see a bit of poochy belly on carvings of women from this time, sometimes (see full-bodied sculptures of Nefertiti) but they still tend to be rather slender and idealized. Again, there's the question of whether this is a stylistic choice or reflection of reality.

    As a person who was in school in the '90's and quite heavily taking photographs (sorry, no selfies on my end, but everything else). It was awesome to learn how to develop my negatives into actual photos, back when I had a photography class in school. I wish that same class was still offered. Tho I really appreciate all of the conveniences of modern tech (ie. I started out back in '93 when it was just started and have always been heavily into it). There's always been an appreciation to taking photos on a 35mm (and older) and also being able to develop negatives upon paper in a dark room. Each experience is very different and it's definitely a learning experience that should be shown to all people regardless of age.

    It's amazing how the timeline of selfies brings more than just the selfie in question. From people royals like Anastasia taking images like Instagram is already a thing, to people like Hiromix actively pushing the idea into the spotlight. Hell, wouldn't have even considered a hand print of a selfie. But I like Hiromix's work in particular, and I would not be surprised if she also pioneered the "aesthetic" style images that have been floating around recently. The time, colors, and culture work perfectly. She simply is a legend of her time. Anyway, amazing video as usual. I thoroughly enjoyed it :)
