This is a reduction print on 16 mm Eastmancolor film from a 35 mm, two-color Technicolor film. Because the dyes used in Eastmancolor are unstable, it fades over time to a pink or salmon color.

For the original 35 mm Technicolor version, a beam-splitter in the camera was used to simultaneously expose two sequential frames through green and red filters. The black and white frames of the negative were then printed on two separate strips of film. The strips were glued together back-to-back and dyed with complimentary colors: the green-filtered strip was dyed orange-red and the red-filtered strip was dyed cyan. The use of two color separations instead of three meant the process could not reproduce a full palette of colors (George Eastman Museum 2025).
