Rue Colbert in Antsirabe, Madagascar, circa 1908: A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene on Rue Colbert in Antsirabe, a charming town located in the central highlands of Madagascar. Established in the late 19th century, Rue Colbert was named after the famous Parisian street, Rue Colbert, and was home to several European-owned businesses, including the National Discount House of Paris. The image showcases the vibrant street life of Antsirabe during the 1900s. The wide, dusty road is filled with a mix of pedestrians and rickshaws, also known as 'pousse-pousses,' which were a common mode of transportation in Madagascar at the time. The Comptoir National d'Escompte de Paris, a prominent building on the right-hand side of the street, stands tall and imposing, its red awning providing shade to the bustling crowd below. The houses lining the street exhibit a unique blend of architectural styles, with some displaying traditional Malagasy design elements, while others showcase more European influences. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the buildings add to the visual richness of the scene. Despite the passage of time, this photograph transports us back to a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the history and culture of Antsirabe and Madagascar during the early 1900s.
