"Een colonne Alpijnse Jagers, door de Duitschers de "Blauwe Duivels" bijgenaamd, vertrekken om een met sneeuw bedekte bergengte in de Vogezen in bezit te nemen" is a photo by Sémaphore created between 1914-1915. It depicts a column of French Alpine troops marching through a snow-covered mountain pass in the Vosges mountains, a scene that highlights the harsh conditions endured by soldiers during World War I. This evocative photo captures the determination of these soldiers as they carry their equipment through the treacherous landscape. The title, which translates to "A Column of Alpine Hunters, nicknamed the 'Blue Devils' by the Germans, depart to take possession of a snow-covered mountain pass in the Vosges," underscores the dramatic and challenging context of this historical moment.
