L'Alsace Heuree, Le depart des boches de Colmar
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a significant moment in history through the lens of art. The print by Jean-Jacques Waltz, also known as Hansi, depicts the departure of German soldiers from Colmar during World War I. This powerful image showcases the resilience and triumph of the French people in reclaiming their land. The scene unfolds with a transport vehicle loaded with luggage and equipment, symbolizing the end of an era dominated by German occupation. The engraving mocks the defeated Germans, highlighting their expulsion from Alsace. Amidst this historical context, a child stands tall next to a military figure, representing hope for a brighter future. Waltz's drawing skillfully portrays both the pain endured by France under German rule and its eventual liberation. Through his unique artistic style, he conveys emotions that resonate deeply with viewers even today. This rare print is part of a private collection and serves as a reminder of past struggles overcome by unity and determination. Its historical significance cannot be understated as it immortalizes an important chapter in French history.
