Moreover the eye is sometimes disturbed by big flashes of red or green light.

Yet the beginnings are so excellent that the perfect solution of the technical problem may be expected in the near future.

It has been claimed by friends of color photography that at the present stage of development natural color photography is unsatisfactory for a rendering of outer events because any scientific or historical happening which is reproduced demands exactly the same colors which reality shows.
But on the other hand the process seems perfectly sufficient for the photoplay because there no objective colors are expected and it makes no difference whether the gowns of the women or the rugs on the floor show the red and green too vividly and the blue too faintly.

From an esthetic point of view we ought to come to exactly the opposite verdict.

The famous British coronation pictures were superb and they gained immensely by the rich color effects.
