EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Boycotting in Ireland" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist, provides a glimpse into the tumultuous Irish Land War and its repercussions. The image portrays a scene of intense tension and defiance. Mike Flynn, an eyewitness to this event, stands at the forefront with his leg demanding justice for his fellow countrymen. In the background, we see arms crossed and determined faces as caretakers stand united against injustice. Shot under suspicion of committing a crime during these troubled times, this powerful visual encapsulates the struggle faced by those involved in boycotting efforts. Moonlighters aged 70 or more were attacked for failing to pay rent according to law. One particular location depicted is Pope's Cabin in Cullotty where James Kearney resided with his mother. It was here that weapons were kept as defensive armaments against possible threats from opposing forces. As we delve into this historical narrative through Bridgeman Images' lens, it becomes evident that this print serves as both a reminder of past struggles and a testament to human resilience. It allows us to reflect on the bravery displayed by those who fought for their rights amidst adversity during one of Ireland's most challenging periods - the Irish Land War.
