SWEDEN - Swedish artist Sanna Dullaway...has transformed some of the most famous black and white pictures ever captured into high resolution colour versions. [Above is] Dallaway's colour version of 'The Burning Monk' who was protesting against the Vietnamese President's pro-Catholic doctine (Original picture by Malcolm Browne, 1968). The Monk was carried from the scene by his compatriots, in a coffin, although it was said not all his limbs could be fitted in. He was then taken to Xa Loi Pagoda in central Saigon where his body was fully cremated. It is said that his heart did not burn and is considered holy and still preserved to this day. [link]
