EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Queen Ranavalona III of Madagascar in exile in Algiers. The colour lithograph, created by Henri Meyer after an original painting, beautifully captures the queen's regal presence and striking attire. Queen Ranavalona III was forced into exile following the French colonization of Madagascar in the late 19th century. In this portrait, she stands tall and dignified, wearing a traditional Malagasy dress adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors. Her elegant fashion sense reflects her status as a powerful ruler. The image provides a glimpse into the complex dynamics of colonialism during that era. It highlights both the strength and resilience of African women like Queen Ranavalona III, who faced immense challenges while navigating through political turmoil. Algiers serves as a poignant backdrop for this photograph, symbolizing not only Queen Ranavalona's physical displacement but also representing North Africa's rich history and Arab civilization. This print is a testament to the enduring legacy of Queen Ranavalona III and her contribution to Malagasy culture. It reminds us of the importance of preserving historical narratives that shed light on forgotten stories from around the world.
