EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century showcases the powerful presence of The Emperor (ras) Theodoros of Abyssinia, surrounded by his loyal lions. Illustrated by Emile Bayard, this print exudes a sense of regality and authority. The Emperor stands tall and confident in traditional Ethiopian attire, adorned with intricate patterns and symbols that reflect his rich cultural heritage. His gaze is steady and commanding, as he holds himself with an air of dignity befitting a true king. Surrounding him are three majestic lions, their tawny coats contrasting beautifully against the dark background. These magnificent creatures symbolize strength, courage, and protection - attributes often associated with royalty. Their presence serves as a testament to the Emperor's power and dominion over his kingdom. Emile Bayard's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical moment to life on paper. Every line etched into the engraving captures not only the physical likeness but also conveys the essence of Theodoros' character - a leader who commands respect both from his subjects and from nature itself. This remarkable piece invites us to delve into history and witness an extraordinary ruler at the height of his reign. It reminds us of Africa's rich cultural heritage while celebrating one man's indomitable spirit in shaping its destiny.
