The Seneca Native in 1908 example seems the most absurd to me. I know the software has no notion of a "fabric" or "clothing" but it's very rare for brown or beige things to fade to blue (or vise versa). In real life things when transition from brown/beige to another color that other color tends to be a red orange or yellow. I know from the known issue that it likes blue but it still seems very odd that it chose to fade from brown to blue like that.

Take a look at the two most famous indian textiles from the 1800s which sold For millions/appraised for millions.

They were chiefs blankets.

They were blue/had no red

To me the Seneca native's skin on the hand seems a bit to reddish. I find these photos to have very high saturation. I think this could be adjusted and get subtler effects. It's still amazing that this is possible with no human intervention but at the same time, from a different perspective, I find that the originals have their own charm that I would leave it like that.

Is it unthinkable that the seneca girl actually had her hand painted red, for decoration or as a symbol of something? Perhaps her father/brother etc was a fighter and this was a way to keep spirits up while he was in the war?

If you compare the tone of her hand to her face in the black and white image you can clearly see that the colors are different.
