EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a group of Betsimisaraka women, taken by the talented French photographer Desire Charnay in 1863. The image captures the essence and beauty of these women from Madagascar, Africa. The composition is striking, with the women positioned together in a confident and unified manner. Their traditional attire and intricate jewelry reflect their rich cultural heritage. Each woman exudes grace and strength as they gaze into the camera lens. Charnay's use of albumen silver print enhances the details and textures within the photograph, allowing us to appreciate every nuance of their clothing and accessories. The dimensions of this print are impressive, measuring 18.3 x 16.4 cm for the image itself, while mounted on a larger frame measuring 42.4 x 29.8 cm. This print not only serves as a visual testament to Betsimisaraka culture but also stands as an important historical artifact capturing life in Madagascar during this period.
