"French Soldiers in the Field" on bivouac near a shallow stream, photographed by head of photographic services for the French Army, Jean Tournassou. The brilliant red of the breeches and deep blue of the tunics demonstrate the exceptional qualities of the Autochrome process at its best. Autochromes can still be purchased today from vintage photographic dealers and collectors.
