Last Updated on 22/04/2026 by Eran Feit

In this step-by-step guide, you’ll learn how to transform the colors of one image to mimic those of another.

Color transfer is a practical method to change the appearance of a source image according to the color patternof a target image.
This program is the implementation of the paper Color Transfer between Images by Erik Reinhard, Michael Ashikhmin, Bruce Gooch and Peter Shirley.

What You’ll Learn :Part 1: Setting up a Conda environment for seamless development.Part 2: Installing essential Python libraries.Part 3: Cloning the GitHub repository containing the code and resources.Part 4: Running the code with your own source and target images.Part 5: Exploring the results.Check out our tutorial here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4_qxl4E_w4Link for the Medium post : https://medium.com/@feitgemel/amazing-color-transfer-between-images-dd70033a5367You can find more tutorials, and join my newsletter here : https://eranfeit.net/Instructions file for this video here : https://eranfeit.lemonsqueezy.com/buy/ac4b85c7-1633-4767-84a8-1764186128e7 or here : https://ko-fi.com/s/07ba04b75f
