EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving "With General Buller in Kerry" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Amedee Forestier, this print captures the intense atmosphere of Ireland during the late 19th century. The image depicts General Buller, a prominent military figure, amidst the turmoil of the Irish Land War. Intriguingly, we find ourselves witnessing an eviction notice being served to a tenant on Lord Kenmare's estate in Castle Island. The scene is filled with tension as moonlighters lurk nearby and police constabulary stand guard. General Buller stands resolute, his gaze fixed upon the unfolding events. This illustration was originally published in The Illustrated London News on December 11th, 1886. It serves as a powerful reminder of the struggles faced by tenants during this tumultuous period in Irish history. Forestier's attention to detail brings every element to life – from the lush hay crop swaying gently under the moonlight to each individual weapon held tightly by those involved. This engraving not only documents an important news item but also showcases Forestier's remarkable talent for capturing historical moments with precision and emotion. As we observe "With General Buller in Kerry" we are transported back in time, gaining insight into a chapter of Irish history that shaped land rights and social justice movements for generations to come.
