Stunning women of iron and steel leaving their mark on history



Stunning colorized images have given new life to WWII photos of brave female snipers who defended their homeland against the invading German battalions. This set also includes the most succesful female sniper in history known as ‘Lady Death’ or by her real name Lyudmila Pavlichenko. The photographs were colorized by Moscow artist Olga Shirnina.

Olga Shirnina became popular thanks to her Flickr page, she invests massive amounts of time to colorize the versions of historical photographs. However for now she only posts photographs from the Russian history be it Empire of Soviet era. However she does enjoy periodical Hollywood celebrities colorizing from the previous century.

“There are very few [color or colorized] images with Red Army soldiers, I decided to fill this gap,” She said. “Sometimes a picture can say more than many words and I’ll be glad if people learn more about Russia and its people through my colorings.”
