EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "With General Buller in Kerry" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Johann Nepomuk Schonberg and published in The Illustrated London News on December 4,1886, it offers a glimpse into the Irish Land War and the unrest that plagued the region during that time. The scene depicted is one of action and agitation as armed peasants search for weapons at Tralee Station. In this third-class railway carriage, General Buller stands tall amidst blurred motion, symbolizing the movement and urgency of the situation. His presence exudes authority and determination as he oversees this raid with an intense focus. The image captures not only the defensive weaponry but also highlights the tension between local police constabulary forces and those involved in the Irish Land War. It serves as a reminder of how arms played a crucial role in this conflict while shedding light on Ireland's troubled past. Preserved within private collections today, this engraving from Bridgeman Images allows us to delve into history's pages. It invites contemplation about Ireland's struggle for independence and reflects upon moments when ordinary people were driven to take up arms against perceived injustices. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a time when movements for change were met with resistance—a powerful testament to human resilience and our unyielding pursuit of freedom.
