What is a Sepia Filter?

A Sepia Filter shifts image colors toward warm brown and gold tones. The effect is inspired by old photographs and can make modern images feel softer or more historical.

How sepia tone is applied

The browser recalculates the color channels of each pixel using a sepia-style matrix. The result keeps the image structure while replacing the original color mood with a warmer palette.
