Well, a couple of thoughts cross my mind:
1. The prints haven't aged as well not necessarily due to fading,
etc., but the improved quality of papers. We have far "whiter" and
"brighter" papers now than 40 years ago. There were more options back
then, but not all of them had the brilliance we have today.
2. Lighting isn't "original intent"
3. Choice in tonalities may not mesh with current visual preference.
