EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment - the visit of Ras Makonnen to Les Invalides in Paris, 1902. Ras Makonnen, an esteemed general and governor of Harar province in Ethiopia, was not only a military figure but also the father of Tafari Makonnen, who would later become Emperor Haile Selassie I. The image is derived from an illustration featured in Le Petit Journal on August 3rd, 1902. In this vibrant color depiction, we see Ras Makonnen donning his distinguished military uniform as he explores the grand interiors of Les Invalides. Surrounded by soldiers and men alike, this visit symbolizes both diplomatic relations between Ethiopia and France during that era and highlights the significance of royalty. The photograph transports us back to early 20th century Paris where cultures collide within these historic walls. It serves as a reminder of the rich history shared between nations and showcases how art media can immortalize such important moments for generations to come.
