Framed Print of Reception of British naval officers by the native governor of Mohabo, Madagascar, 1881. Creator: Unknown
Reception of British naval officers by the native governor of Mohabo, Madagascar, 1881. We present one more Illustration, from the Sketches by Staff-Surgeon J. N. Stone, R.N. of the scenes at Mohabo, in the south-west of Madagascar, when the Hova Governor of that province received in state the visit of Captain C. E. Foote and the officers of H.M.S. Ruby, who had come up from the coast, at Mourondava, in pursuance of the Governor's polite and hospitable invitation. These gentlemen, the superior officers in full uniform, are shown in the left foreground of this Sketch, walking up to the front of the house or hut occupied by the Governor, who stands there, with his aide-de-camp, in military attire of the European fashion, awaiting their approach. One or two seamen and marines, forming the Captain's escort, with an English settler who had accompanied the party from Mourondava, appear in the centre of the foreground. The Governor's guard of honour are drawn up at the right and left of his mansion, which is surrounded by other dwellings of a similar description. A few natives, who probably belong to the Governor's family or household, squat on the ground, enjoying the scene as spectators'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
