Antananarivo – In a small workshop on the outskirts of Madagascar's capital, Antananarivo, a team of master artisans is keeping maritime history alive by crafting detailed models of famous ships. For three decades, craftsmen at "the Village" have been creating museum-quality models of vessels that once ruled the waves.
From the Bounty to the Soleil Royal and Superbe, these legendary ships – which once carried admirals, merchants and kings across the world's oceans – are now recreated in exquisite detail by the Village's 30 skilled model makers.
