On the Seventeenth - The Irishman's Idea of Atlas
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing and humorous illustration from 1911, showcasing an elderly Irish man depicted as Atlas, the mythological figure who holds up the heavens. Instead of the usual large globe on his shoulders, Atlas in this illustration supports a globe where Ireland dominates an entire hemisphere. In his other hand, he holds a traditional Irish shillelagh, a wooden walking stick with a knobbed end, symbolizing both defense and authority. The design is adorned with shamrocks lining the sides and bottom, adding to the Irish theme. The title "Puck" is composed of intricate Celtic knots, further emphasizing the connection to Irish mythology and folklore. The date of creation is March 15, 1911. This cartoon, with its unique blend of Irish culture and classical mythology, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and the richness of Irish heritage.
