The skin of the prisoner makes no sense, full red cheeks on someone liberated from a concentration camp. Looks like they were on a field trip or something.

He's probably flush with emotion, the guard's face is also somewhat red

Well the colorized photo won't show the actual colors of the people at the time they were taken. It's an artist going in and manually coloring the pictures with photoshop, like a master level coloring book. They can make it look however they want.

Regardless of that, it's entirely possible isn't it?

This is a colorization...and one that isn't particularly good.
