Factory prints based on portrait images of Queen Elizabeth II around her coronation and printing scarves manufactured in Yokohama were exported mainly to British West African colonies in the late 1950s. Why were commemorative prints using portrait images of sovereigns such as Queen Elizabeth II manufactured and exported to the British West African colonies at the height of the anti-colonial nationalist movement? This thesis will examine the background of the proliferation of the image of the suzerain monarch in Africa on the eve of independence, based on the theories of political scientist Benedict Anderson and historian Ernest Gellner, as well as the establishment of the African nation-state system and the visualization of this system. Commemorative printed textiles were a means of introducing the modern Western system of education, politics, and economics used by the former sovereign nation, the United Kingdom, to the former colonies. It is possible to capture the ideology espoused by African nations at the time of their independence that modernization and Westernization would lead to the creation of homogeneous communities of nation-states.
