The Queen's Palace, Tananarive, Madagascar

EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the year 1897. This remarkable artwork by Henri Meyer depicts the grandeur of the royal palace in Tananarive, now known as Antananarivo. The image serves as a poignant reminder of an era marked by colonialism and political upheaval. In 1896, France emerged victorious in the Second Franco-Hova War and subsequently annexed Madagascar. As a result, Queen Ranavalona III, who belonged to the esteemed Merina dynasty that had governed Madagascar for over a century, was exiled to Algeria. This engraving from Le Petit Journal on October 20th, 1897 captures this significant moment in history. The photograph showcases the impressive architecture of the palace with its elaborate entrance and stunning exterior. Surrounding it are men dressed in traditional attire - perhaps courtiers or officials associated with the monarchy. The vibrant colors bring life to this snapshot of nineteenth-century Madagascar. This artwork not only represents an important historical event but also highlights themes such as power dynamics between nations and cultural identity within colonized territories. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and storytelling through visual media. As we gaze upon "The Queen's Palace" we are transported back in time and invited to contemplate the complexities of colonialism while appreciating the beauty inherent in African artistry and architectural heritage.
