EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Emperor Menelik II of Abyssinia, also known as Sahle Maryam, in 1895. Created by the talented artist Henri Meyer and featured in Le Petit Journal on November 10th of that year, this illustration showcases the powerful ruler during a significant period in history. Menelik II stands tall and proud, surrounded by a group of men who appear to be his loyal subjects. Dressed in traditional Abyssinian attire, their vibrant headdresses and shields add an element of cultural richness to the scene. The emperor himself leans confidently against a weapon, exuding strength and authority. The color palette used in this artwork brings life to the image, emphasizing its historical significance. It transports us back to the 19th century when Ethiopia was engaged in warfare and facing external threats. As we admire this engraving from AccuSoft Inc. , it is impossible not to appreciate both its artistic value and its portrayal of an influential figure like Menelik II. This print serves as a reminder of Ethiopia's rich heritage and the resilience displayed by its people during challenging times.
