About this video:
Someone in my family told me about a possible time capsule in our old family house, after investigation I found a box dating from around 1900 judging by the objects and the technic of the photos found inside.
I then decided to develop them using one of the oldest ways to make photography prints : Cyanotype.

WOW...Amazing the emotion that this brings forth. We feel the connection without ever knowing her or her cat. We feel the sadness of knowing they are no longer here. AAAH how we souls are so inter connected without realising it.. ❤
I am touched to be in the company of many rare humans who still have humanity and empathy, where men are not afraid to show emotion and we all gathered here at a Place where memories of 120 years was given life again. GOD bless you all. Keep that love alive and spread it around to many.

How could she have imagined that, 120 years later, long after she was dead, someone would find the negatives of her beloved kitty, and develop them as nearly half a million people watch and say;

[TitoBobbyPh]

nothing changed in 120 years... People just love to take picture of their cats 😁😁😁

[jessenone]

When I was young I thought 120 years was such a long long time, now that I'm 72, 120 years doesn't seem so long ago.

[WaterBottleBlues]

I don’t know why this made me tear up, it’s just nice to be remembered. 🕰

[zerongraf]

27-years old man, criying like a baby. man, thats so awesome.

[BranEman]

My father in-law died of cancer at age 83 worried for his kitty in his last years and made me promise to care for her after he died. Kitty and I took care for each other for another 14 years till she passed. It hurts my heart knowing our shared rituals are no more, but never forgotten. Thanks for the post.

[Darryl_Frost]

The nicest part is when you put it all back in place, for someone else to do the same thing in another 120 years.. So nice of you.. I enjoyed this very much..

[ilyaIvanov_personal]

She would've never thought that after so many years her beloved cat will be seen by other people in 120 years, how fascinating :)

"She wanted her cat not to be forgotten".
This whole video made me bawl.


I am getting old.

[marsgal]

I've done prints from old negatives and always feel honoured and humble when I do so. One favourite is my Mom and Dad dressed up, going out to a party. Mom is just starting to show a bump. It's me.

[WolfoxLive]

wow, she loved them so much, she made them immortal. very emotional.

[davidwebb]

i got teary-eyed when i read the line "She wanted her beloved cat not to be forgotten"

That little girl whoever she was didn't want her little kitty to be forgotten.

And you Mr. Stern you brought it back to life in a way.

Powerful video!

[plebeiangaming]

Is it just me or a lot of people also feel a sort of emotional attachment to things of the past, regardsless if they are ours or not?

[clieding]

That was lovely. I am now over sixty-years-old and becoming with age painfully nostalgic. I want younger people to know that all the former me’s from as far back as infancy are still alive, still here, still a part of me with all the vivid memories and impressions of life—all the joys and sorrows, dreams and desires, fascinations and wonders still a glow in the radiant light of my mind and spirit. Each one of us is our own time capsule. We continuously grow, learn and develop. Our souls become wrapped in layer upon layer of those myriad experiences like the rings of a tree concentrically expanding around our core.

“She wanted her beloved cat not to be forgotten”... THIS channel is like a lesson on humanity through the use of cameras. This channel is like....an impressionistic painter but with glass, chemicals, electronics. F—KING ❤️❤️❤️THIS CHANNEL 😭😭😭

[EddVCR]

I just imagined the little girl, her best friend the kitty, the kitten, and her doggy watching you develop the photos from heaven together with big smiles!

[JackieOdonnel]

This is so personal. She clearly loved her pets and wanted them preserved on film. What an incredible find. I'd like to think she's "up there" somewhere smiling, together again with her pets. Thank you so much for sharing both the incredible find, as well as the cyanotype method of development. Just fantastic all around!

[SomeUnremarkableGuy]

Man, If we only could have time machine. Imagine going back in the 1900s and telling to that little girl, your photo will live.
