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.

She probably didn't really think twice about it, playing with her new camera, her cat outside frolicking, her out there with her pets, taking a few pictures, then going off to play somewhere else with her innocent childhood... in time, she would become more social in society, finishing school, all the memories that go with those years, all the things that shaped her into maturity... becoming a woman and entering the work force, perhaps, or marrying some long loved beau.. having a family of her own, children, watching them grow into adults, all the life around her, all those then current things, and fond memories yet never considering 120 years into the future.. grand children, she's old now, sitting in her chair, watching them play. friends and family come and go all the time, she's content. but death... she now knows it all too well. Perhaps she watched her husband of so many years pass, or friends she loved very much.. the pain of loss, where only memories remain.. and now as she lays in her bed, in her final moments, she smiles.. because her life was lived fully.. we can only imagine her life. and those photos are the slightest glimpse into it...

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

@@peterb9862 Uhhh, well... I believe, the little girl's intention, was to have her kitty be seen, as dear, to her heart an essential being, in her life. By turning a fragile, glass, photo-plate negative, into a normal image, Mathieu has enabled (us), non-photographic experts, to see her lovely pet, in a regular fashion. The music is, clearly, there, for the purpose you suggest, nonetheless, I - and, many others, as we now can see - are delighted, that the sweet, innocent wish, of a young girl, met with some measure of success. As an aficionado, of historical inquiry, the very thought, of a child, reaching out to (me), though, perhaps, anonymously, is another marvelous reward, for my intention, of connecting with the past. If I were touching those delicate keepsakes, in a little tin box - knowing their purpose - I would have been flooded, with emotion, just in the silence, of the workshop!

I collected cameras so I was happy to have found them. Unfortunately after sitting in the shed for a few decades it had rusted and the camera didn’t work anymore. But there was a roll of 8mm film inside. I had the roll of film for a while after that until a few months ago. I watched a video of some guy developing movie film and decided to try it myself. Only half of it was used. But what you could see was a video of our street in the 60s or 70s. A kid riding his bike. Then a party in someone’s backyard.

CITAP1 “Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving... that transcends dimensions of time and space..”

my heart is exploding with love and rainbows at these 120 yo kitty pictures, sometimes humans are awesome

Grief is the price of Love...And in that little cat's eyes , her soul says she was well loved and taken care of...Poor girl...I hope they are ALL eternally together, once again..

A majority of the emotion was due to the excellent selection of music.

I like the photo with all those animals together :) What a peaceful moment, preserved forever. You can tell her pets were a family to her.

Cats and KZread go together so well that even a century can't keep them apart.

Beautiful. Moments in time "frozen" forever....Its kind of silly that every time I see this type of "thing' (old photos) my first thought is something like "wow all those people are long gone".....There are photos in a coffee shop where I live (Idar Oberstein) that has pictures taken of the area immediately around the shop from around the 50's(?)...Often look at them and think "every person in these photos has a story, where did they go? what did they do in life".....Again, Beautiful work.

I cant even begin to tell you how emotional this made me feel. Thankyou.

This made me cry, legitimately. People have always been people and that is why I'm a historian.

The story of life is quite a sad one. Times come and go. Moments that will never come to pass again. Most of what we do know has been preserved in art, writings and of course, photography. The rest is legend.

Discovered this on YT yesterday evening. I was entranced, transfixed, and loved every moment of the video. When the first plate with the tabby cat was developed, and I saw Mathieu's caption, my eyes filled with tears. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing with us. I am now going to check out your other videos. It's such a wonderful 'feel-good' video, and in these dark times something we all need. Merci beaucoup, Mathieu. xx

I have negative glass films from Taisho period Japan. I hope I can print them too someday with your method. No cat picture tho, just a family picture with kimono, building, house, garden, and a smiling baby holding a Japanese flag.

Simply beautiful. Shows how important photography truly is.

Photography is freezing a moment in time. At times it conveys such sadness. The last time I felt like this was looking at the photographs of the personal belongings of Vivian Maier. It evokes such sad emotions like no other medium. Thanks for this.

Incredible! Brought a lump to my throat; that’s what Photography is about

Something that was so precious to a little girl so long ago. Thank you for preserving it so we can see it and it keeps her beloved cats memory alive just like she wanted. It was a big deal to take pictures 120 years ago so her pets must have meant a lot to her. Made me emotional

This video has now become an equally beautiful and meaningful time capsule. You brought a man’s man to near tears.

I liked the care and respect he had in keeping everything as it was before. Beautiful!

There's something profound about immortalizing some being from the past who would have otherwise been forgotten.

Goodness! When the cat was revealed it brought tears to my eyes.

I teared up watching this. I have rarely put my cat in my videos, but uploaded one tonight. When I read "She wanted her beloved cat not to be forgotten," I lost it. I hope my cat is never forgotten as well. Well done!

That's just beautiful and sweet! I bet who ever the little girl was is smiling from heaven. And reunited with her beloved cat❤.😻👍🙏

Great series, and thank you for not saying the cliche "what's up youtube". More photography youtubers need to learn what filmmakers already know, "show don't tell"

What an amazing experience you had during the development of such an old exposed glass negative ! Beautiful. Thank you.

Awwwww.....a little girl over 100 yrs ago, loved her kitties and dog, just like little girls today.

Just beautifully done, and for me quite moving....as a “little girl” still inside...I can understand her wanting to keep her cats image forever...even better, her cat, it’s kitten and the family dog! Precious much loved treasures in a young girls heart....as my feline photos taken over the past 60+ yrs still are to me! Thankyou for sharing, and so interesting to watch the process! 👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😻😻😻😻😻

That was incredible!! Brought tears to my eyes as I know the feeling of having love for pets. You did a wonderful job recapturing the image of that beloved cat.

Made me cry. So beautiful. Whoever that little girl was I love her. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful photos of a beautiful moment in time. Equally beautiful is that you took the time to develop and share her wish to never be forgotten, through her photos of her dearest pets. We may never know who she was, but her memories live on forever in all of us that viewed this video. Thank you :D

i always realize at stuff like this that how animals never change but how much humans do... just how many fashion trends and ideas happened since then. Even the behaviour and lifestyle was very different. but cats are still exactly the same :)
