Prompt · English

Carefully restore this old family photograph. Remove visible scratches, dust and stains while preserving the original framing, faces, expressions, age, clothing construction and background objects. Improve clarity conservatively without making skin plastic or inventing sharp facial details where the source is unclear. Add subdued, plausible period colors and retain a little film grain. Do not modernize the clothing, change identities, remove people or replace the setting. Return one restored image at the original aspect ratio.
