EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the War in Madagascar. The photo, titled "The War in Madagascar-Anecdotal History of the French Expeditions of 1885-1895" is part of a series illustrated by Louis Bombled and written by Henri Galli dit Galllichet. In this particular image, we are transported back to the 19th century as we gaze upon Tananarive, the capital city of Madagascar. Taken from the south, it offers a unique perspective on this bustling metropolis during a time when colonialism was at its peak. The view showcases an array of architectural marvels that dot the landscape - elegant buildings that reflect both French influence and local craftsmanship. It's fascinating to see how these structures blend seamlessly with their natural surroundings, creating a harmonious fusion between man-made creations and nature's beauty. As we delve into this historical narrative through art, we gain insight into not only the military expeditions but also the complex dynamics between France and Madagascar during this period. This print serves as a visual reminder of our shared past and invites us to explore further into African history. Preserved within private collections for years, this photograph now emerges from obscurity thanks to Photo Josse's efforts. Its availability allows us to appreciate its artistic value while also deepening our understanding of colonial legacies in Africa.
