EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Menelik, Negus of Abyssinia (also known as Menelik II, Emperor of Ethiopia) in all his regal glory. The colour lithograph, created by the French School in the 19th century, exudes a sense of power and authority. Menelik stands tall and proud, adorned in traditional Ethiopian attire that reflects both his status as royalty and his connection to the rich cultural heritage of Abyssinia. His headdress is ornate and intricate, symbolizing his position as king. Surrounded by a formidable army of soldiers armed with guns and shields, Menelik embodies strength and leadership. The troops stand united under their emperor's command, ready to defend their land against any threat. The image captures an important moment in history - it was published on November 10th, 1895 in Le Petit Journal. This illustration serves as a testament to Menelik's reign during a time when Ethiopia faced external challenges to its sovereignty. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, we are transported back to an era where monarchy held great significance. It reminds us of the rich tapestry of African history and the resilience displayed by leaders like Menelik II who fought tirelessly for their people's freedom and independence.
