Queen Emma in Color
Hawaii Posts Presents: Queen Emma of Hawaii in Color
To compliment Hawaii Posts Podcast #57 “Queen Emma’s Story”
I found 10 photos of Queen Emma Kalanikaumakaʻamano Kaleleonālani Naʻea Rooke. I colorized them and created a video with black and white photos transitioning to color to bring the once gray scale images of the past to a beautiful and familiar color photo. The results seem to make Queen Emma more modern and relatable to the many hawaiian faces around the islands I’ve come to know. Photos are credited where credit could be found, most if not all are public domain. Please forgive me if there are errors in dating the photos. I hope you enjoy.
