This photograph captures Ras Makonnen Walda-Mika el Guddisa, a pivotal figure in Ethiopian history, in his role as the general and governor of Harar province around 1890. Born in 1852, Ras Makonnen was a prominent military leader and a key advisor to Emperor Menelik II. He played a crucial role in the expansion of the Ethiopian Empire, particularly in the conquest of Harar in 1887. Ras Makonnen's military prowess and political acumen earned him the respect and loyalty of his people, as well as the recognition of the imperial court.
