Restore this old photo while preserving the original identity, expression, clothing, and historical character.

Repair scratches, dust marks, paper cracks, stains, fading, blur, and low contrast. Improve clarity naturally without making the people look modern, plastic, or AI-generated. If the photo is black-and-white or sepia, add subtle realistic color only where it improves the image. Keep the original composition, age, facial structure, and emotional tone.

Output should look like a careful archival photo restoration: clean, sharp, natural, respectful, realistic skin texture, balanced contrast, no over-smoothing, no new people, no changed faces, no extra details, no text, no watermark.
