Twenty-nine of history’s most iconic scientists in one photograph – now in color!

Of the 29 scientists in attendance (the majority of whom contributed to the fields of physics and chemistry), over half of them were, or would would go to become, Nobel laureates. (It bears mentioning that Marie Curie, the only woman in attendance at the conference, remains the only scientist in history to be awarded Nobel Prizes in two different scientific fields.)

All this is to say that this photo is beyond epic. Now, thanks to the masterful work of redditor mygrapefruit, this photo is more impressive, still. Through a process known as colorization, mygrapefruit has given us an an even better idea of what this scene might have looked like had we attended the conference in person back in 1927; and while the Sweden-based artist typically charges for her skills, she's included a link to a hi-res, print-size download of the colorized photo featured below, free of charge.
