EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Malgaches epiant des explorateurs francais" by Louis Charles Bombled depicts a significant moment in history. The color lithograph showcases the encounter between Malagasy locals and French explorers during the Franco-Hova Wars in Madagascar. The image portrays a scene of curiosity, as the indigenous people observe the arrival of these foreign adventurers. With intricate details and vibrant colors, Bombled's artwork brings to life this pivotal event that took place in 19th-century colonialism. The illustration was originally created for "La Guerre a Madagascar" written by H Galli with illustrations by L Bombled and published in 1897. It offers viewers a glimpse into an era marked by expeditions, campaigns, and France's quest for territorial expansion. As we admire this piece from a private collection, it serves as a reminder of the complex dynamics between colonizers and native populations during this period. It invites us to reflect on questions of power, cultural exchange, and historical narratives surrounding French overseas departments and territories. Through its artistic expression, this print captures both the beauty of French culture portrayed through lithography techniques while also shedding light on the consequences of colonization. Let us appreciate this work not only for its aesthetic value but also for its ability to provoke thought about our shared past.
