Ranavalona III, the Last Queen of Madagascar in 1897: A Historical Moment Captured in Time This evocative photograph captures Ranavalona III, the last monarch of the Kingdom of Madagascar, as she was being transported to the island of Réunion in the Indian Ocean in 1897, following her dethronement by the French. The image, taken in 1896, offers a poignant glimpse into a pivotal moment in the history of Madagascar and its people. Born in 1862 as Rabodina Andriamihaja, Ranavalona III ascended to the throne in 1883 upon the death of her husband, Queen Ranavalona II. Her reign was marked by a period of relative peace and stability, as well as efforts to modernize the kingdom. However, the increasing influence of European powers, particularly France, would ultimately lead to her downfall. In the photograph, Ranavalona III is depicted in traditional Malagasy attire, with a solemn expression on her face. She is surrounded by a group of European men, likely French soldiers or officials, who are overseeing her journey into exile. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the colonial era and the profound impact it had on the people of Madagascar. The queen's removal from power marked the end of the Merina dynasty, which had ruled Madagascar for over two centuries. Ranavalona III would spend the remainder of her life in exile on Réunion, where she died in 1917. This photograph, taken just a year before her death, offers a hauntingly beautiful and historical record of a queen and her people at a time of great upheaval and change.
