This is Sarah Forbes Bonetta, the god-daughter of Queen Victoria. The child of a West African ruler, she was captured at the age of five by the king of present-day Benin, and kept as a slave. She was brought by an English captain to Britain... and the rest is long-forgotten history. What you see above is a new portrait—alongside her photo—painted by Zambian artist Hannah Uzor to resurface her amazing story. The Guardian has all the fascinating details. The best photos are over at Daily Mail.
