Madrid in colour

THIS IS NOT A BOOK, IT IS A TIME MACHINE.

This is how this journey begins. A journey into the past in search of lost colour.

Through this collection of digitally coloured photographs, we will travel through a Madrid that no longer exists. We will enter buildings that have disappeared, walk through unrecognisable streets and mingle with the inhabitants of a town of which only the memory remains.

Thanks to these photos and texts we will be able to relive historical events and see how their protagonists, both anonymous and well-known, come back to life. Because life has never been in black and white. In these pages you will find more than two hundred full-colour images from the mid-19th century to the 1970s, accompanied by unusual anecdotes and curiosities.

You will be able to explore a city that hides old legends and discover strange customs, such as the human zoos of the Retiro.

You will also be able to witness some of the mysterious crimes that changed the history of the country and attend inaugurations and events relevant to the city. If you want to visit old shops, luxurious palaces, spend the night in a dark tavern or wander through forgotten corners, this is the book for you.
