Colour photography was first patented by the French Lumière brothers in 1903, but didn't become widespread until after World War 2. However, at the forefront of innovation, the French Army kept colour records of some of their operations. A large archive of WWI colour photography is available at www.worldwaronecolourphotos.com - here are some highlights, which I found particularly powerful for their depiction of the ordinariness of life at and just behind the front. These are all original colour photos, not colourised b&w shots.
