EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "La colonne legere dans les monts Ambohimena, marche sur Tananarive" transports us to the stunning landscapes of Madagascar. The image, a colour lithograph by Louis Charles Bombled, showcases the beauty and grandeur of the Ambohimena mountains as a French colonial expedition marches towards Tananarive. The composition is rich in detail, capturing the essence of this historical moment during the Franco-Hova Wars. It serves as an illustration for H Galli's book "La Guerre a Madagascar" with illustrations by Bombled himself. The print offers a glimpse into France's campaign and colonization efforts in Madagascar during that time. The lush greenery of the mountains contrasts beautifully with the soldiers' uniforms and their determined expressions. This juxtaposition symbolizes both nature's resilience and man's relentless pursuit of power. As we admire this artwork from a private collection, we are reminded of France's overseas expeditions and its influence on various cultures around the world. It invites contemplation about colonialism and its impact on nations like Madagascar. Through this photograph, Bridgeman Images allows us to delve into history while appreciating Bombled's artistic talent. It reminds us that art has always been intertwined with politics and can serve as a powerful tool for storytelling.
