EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the emotional moment of the final evacuation of British troops from the Irish Free State in December 1922. The scene unfolds at North Wall Quay in Dublin, with a large crowd of Irish onlookers gathered to bid farewell to the departing soldiers. The British army, having been in Ireland for centuries, was leaving the Irish Free State following the Anglo-Irish Treaty signed in December 1921. The treaty granted Ireland dominion status, but six northern counties remained under British rule, leading to the establishment of Northern Ireland. The soldiers, many of whom had served in Ireland for years, are seen boarding a steam boat that will take them back to Britain. The Irish crowd, waving and cheering, reflects a mix of relief, excitement, and perhaps a touch of sadness. The Liffey River, which has been a symbol of Irish-British relations for centuries, forms a backdrop to this historic moment. The photograph captures the political significance of this event, which marked the end of British rule in the majority of Ireland and the beginning of the Irish Free State. The image is a poignant reminder of the complex and often tumultuous history between Ireland and Britain, and the profound impact that political changes can have on people's lives.
