Sepia is a reddish-brown color that is often seen in many old photos. In history, sepia colored ink was created from the ink sac of the cuttlefish. The origin of the word is the Latin word for “cuttlefish”. In the past, Greeks and Romans used a lot of sepia ink for writing and drawing and it was also used by many artist until the 19th century.
Sepia tones are also used in photography so the hue resembles the effect of aging in old photographs. Today, cameras and imaging software are used to add this effect to the photo directly and to make it look beautiful. Using this color effect on a photo can really create a great
framed sepia tone photo art image that would bring the feeling of history and beauty into any room.
