EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Malades evacues sur l hopital de Marololo" transports us back to a significant moment in history. The colour lithograph, created by Louis Charles Bombled, depicts the evacuation of sick individuals from Marololo Hospital during an expedition in Madagascar. The image captures the impact of colonialism and warfare as French forces sought to establish control over the island. In this scene, we witness the aftermath of conflict, with wounded soldiers and civilians being transported on horse-drawn carriages towards safety. The composition is rich in detail, showcasing the resilience and determination of both the patients and their caretakers. The horses stand strong amidst chaos, symbolizing hope and support during challenging times. This artwork was originally commissioned for "La Guerre a Madagascar" a book written by H Galli with illustrations by L Bombled. It serves as a visual testament to France's involvement in Franco-Hova Wars and its expansionist ambitions overseas. As we observe this historical document now preserved within a private collection, it reminds us of the complexities inherent in colonization - highlighting both human suffering and acts of compassion amid conflict. Let us reflect upon these events as we strive for understanding and progress today.
