EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative watercolor painting, a company of the Chasseurs d'Alpins, famously known as the Blue Devils, marches along a picturesque Mediterranean coastal road. The painting is the work of Pierre Comba (1859-1934), a French artist who dedicated his career to the representation of the French military, with a particular focus on the Chasseurs Alpins. At the time of the Great War, Comba's watercolors of the Blue Devils gained widespread popularity and were reproduced as postcards, bringing glory to these brave soldiers. Comba was a respected member of the Society of Military Painters and the French Alpine Club, and he received the Palmes Académiques, an honor from the French government for outstanding achievements in the arts or literature. The Blue Devils earned their nickname due to their distinctive uniforms, which included blue facemasks and red berets. In this painting, we see the soldiers in their full regalia, their determined expressions and disciplined posture reflecting their unwavering commitment to their duty. The vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes bring the scene to life, transporting us to the sun-soaked shores of the Mediterranean. Comba's involvement in charities dealing with soldiers in Nice and the Alpes-Maritimes region further underscores his dedication to the military and his community. This painting is a testament to Comba's artistic talent and his deep appreciation for the bravery and sacrifice of the Chasseurs d'Alpins.
