EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Volontaires de la Reunion au fort de Ambohimarina" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Louis Charles Bombled, this colour lithograph captures the essence of an expedition during the Franco-Hova Wars in Madagascar. The image showcases a group of brave volunteers from Reunion Island standing proudly at Fort Ambohimarina. Their determined expressions and military attire speak volumes about their commitment to serving their country during this colonial campaign. This artwork was originally featured as an illustration in the book "La Guerre a Madagascar" by H Galli, with illustrations by L Bombled. Published in 1897, it provides a visual narrative of France's involvement in Madagascar and sheds light on French colonialism during that era. As we delve into this piece, we are reminded of the complexities surrounding expeditions, campaigns, and wars fought for territorial control. It serves as a reminder of France's historical presence overseas and its cultural impact on regions like Reunion Island. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable print from their private collection through Fine Art Finder. Its inclusion within our visual repertoire allows us to appreciate not only the artistic talent behind it but also its historical significance within the context of French culture and imperialism.
