Impressive
Photography had certainly made its mark by 1900 but seen the experimental technology of colour photography and wireless telegraphy (which was also in its infancy) and pairing the two show an impressive grasp of what the technology might be capable of.
I think it’s interesting to see how many of these technologies have been reinvented Babbage-style as well!
