EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Une razzia de boeufs a Diego-Suarez" transports us back in time to the era of French colonialism in Madagascar. Created by Louis Charles Bombled, this colour lithograph captures a significant moment during the Franco-Hova Wars. The image depicts a daring cattle raid in Diego-Suarez, showcasing the intensity and scale of these expeditions. As part of France's campaign to establish control over the island, capturing and controlling valuable livestock such as bulls was crucial for both sustenance and economic purposes. Bombled's attention to detail brings this historical event to life, highlighting not only the bravery and determination of the French forces but also shedding light on the impact of colonization on local communities. This artwork originally served as an illustration for "La Guerre a Madagascar" written by H Galli with illustrations by L Bombled. Published in 1897, it offers insights into one aspect of France's military campaigns during that period. As we admire this print from a private collection, we are reminded of the complex history between France and its overseas territories. It serves as a reminder that art has the power to preserve moments from our past while encouraging reflection on broader themes such as imperialism and cultural exchange.
