EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in Irish history, featuring Douglas Pyne (1847-1888), an influential Irish nationalist and member of Parliament from 1885 to 1888. The image showcases Pyne suspended by a rope from the majestic Lisfinny Castle, fearlessly addressing a passionate crowd of Irish Nationalists while defiantly resisting arrest by British police. The wood engraving, created in England in 1887, beautifully portrays the intensity and determination on Pyne's face as he delivers his powerful speech. The castle's grandeur serves as a striking backdrop for this historic event that unfolded amidst the late 19th-century struggle for Irish independence. Pyne's unwavering commitment to the cause is evident through his rebellious act of speaking out against British rule despite facing imminent arrest. This visual representation encapsulates the spirit of resistance and resilience exhibited by many Irish nationalists during this turbulent period. Granger Art on Demand has expertly preserved this significant piece of history, allowing us to reflect upon the bravery and sacrifice made by individuals like Douglas Pyne. It serves as a reminder of Ireland's long-standing fight for self-determination and its enduring legacy within the nation's collective memory.
