EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the intense and pivotal moment during the Siege of Derry in 1689, a significant event in the Williamite War in Ireland. The city of Derry, then known as Londonderry, was under siege by the Jacobite forces, led by King James II, who sought to reclaim the throne from the Protestant King William III. The siege lasted from 18 April to 1 August, with the city's defenders holding out against the relentless attacks. In this image, we see the determined defenders of Derry, armed with a variety of weapons, including muskets, axes, and cannons, bravely repelling the enemy's advance. The smoke from the cannon fire fills the air, adding to the chaotic scene. The defenders' resolve is unwavering, as they stand their ground against the onslaught. The Siege of Derry was a turning point in the Williamite War, as it marked the first major defeat for the Jacobite forces. The successful defense of the city boosted morale for the Williamite forces and paved the way for their eventual victory. The historical significance of this event is captured in this powerful and evocative print, transporting us back to the tumultuous 17th century and the struggle for power in Ireland.
