    It’s not very well colorized. I assume it’s not made by hand. Maybe some AI tool. It looks mostly good enough so only the errors should be fixed by hand.

    I’m not sure how accurate the colors themselves are. Looks good to me but I would imagine selecting historically accurate colors for different objects, clothes et cetera would require quite a bit of research.
