Final answer:

The title of the photo is most likely 'King Moshoeshoe I' of Basutoland, corresponding with the historical context provided and the description of the photo with the king and his ministers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The title of the referenced photo is most likely King Moshoeshoe I of Basutoland, as it provides a description that matches the information about a historic photograph of a king with his government ministers and advisors. Information given about other photos and figures, such as those from Mali, Senegal, and Cameroon, do not align with this description. The reference to Basutoland, now known as Lesotho, and a nineteenth-century timeline supports the identification of this photo's subject as associated with the history of southern Africa. The title options provided relate to various aspects of African history but, based on the given details, the correct title is the one associated with King Moshoeshoe I.Furthermore, the Grassland Kingdoms, Cameroon title option is not a match since the information links Pascale Marthine Tayou, an artist born in the Republic of Cameroon, to the artworks but does not specifically connect to the image described. The c. 1650-1918 CE date range is too broad and not specific to a single photograph. Hence, the main answer should refer to the historical context of King Moshoeshoe I.
