EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Hova spies of the Queen of Madagascar, Malagasy" takes us on a journey to the vibrant and mysterious world of 19th-century Madagascar. The image, created by an English School artist in the 1800s, offers a glimpse into the lives of Hova spies serving under the powerful Queen. The scene is filled with intrigue as we see two figures dressed in traditional Malagasy attire, their eyes keenly observing their surroundings. These spies were entrusted with gathering information for their queen, ensuring her safety and sovereignty over this exotic land. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable; every line etched onto paper tells a story. From the intricate patterns adorning their clothing to the expressions on their faces, one can almost feel the tension and anticipation that must have permeated through these covert operations. This artwork was originally featured as an illustration in Robert Brown's book "The World Its Cities and Peoples" published by Cassell around 1885. Thanks to digital restoration techniques, we are now able to appreciate its beauty once again. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem within its private collection. As we gaze upon it today, let us be transported back in time - where queens ruled over distant lands and brave spies risked everything for loyalty and honor.
