Black-and-white photography has a history of nearly 100 years in China, recording an extremely important historical stage from old China to new China until the eve of our party's reform and opening up. The historical value of black-and-white photos plays an irreplaceable role. Therefore, the renovation and enlargement of old photos is very important, almost as valuable as the existence of old photos.

However, for decades, there has been no mature technology for the renovation and enlargement of old photos, and it generally relies on electronic scanning. It is difficult to obtain satisfactory results after this image enlargement method, especially for the renovation and enlargement of one-inch and two-inch cloth patterns. Therefore, many precious pictures with historical significance, including those of family members and individuals, can not be refurbished and enlarged, but can only be deposited in memory to accompany the feelings of the years.

The processing and renovation of old photos should be enlarged on the basis of maintaining the original style. The renovation of old photos should choose the methods of changing background, repairing and covering according to the tattered degree of the photos themselves. For the transformation of the background, we can change the background locally or wholly according to the specific situation, and we can also add some foreground decorations, mainly paying attention to the unity and integration of colors.

The format is small, mostly one inch, two inches, three inches and half an inch. Renovation of old photos is a photo renovation task in the field of photography, or a new task.
