Comments:
Due to the fact that the differences in tonalities between photos and reality are inevitable, we must bear in mind that the color tones of the photos are not exactly the same as the tones of the actual colors. The book presents the wear and tear of his time, as well as some stains. It has small flaws. The information provided here are personal opinions not contrasted.
