John Edward Redmond (1856-1918), Irish politician, Parnells successor as leader
John Edward Redmond (1856-1918), Irish politician, Parnells successor as leader of the Nationalist Party 1890-1916. The 1910 elections saw him holding the balance of power in the House of Commons, and he secured the introduction of a Home Rule Bill, which was opposed by protestant Ulster. Redmond supported the British cause on the outbreak of World War I, and the bill was passed although its operation was suspended until the wars end. The growth of the nationalist party Sinn Fein (the political wing of the Irish Republican Army) and the 1916 Easter Rising ended his hopes and his power.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of John Edward Redmond, a prominent Irish politician and successor to Charles Stewart Parnell as leader of the Nationalist Party from 1890 to 1916. In this image, taken by renowned photographer Arthur Garratt, we see Mr. Redmond in the midst of the Home Rule struggle. During the 1910 elections, Redmond held significant influence in the House of Commons and successfully introduced a Home Rule Bill that aimed to grant Ireland self-governance. However, opposition from Protestant Ulster posed a challenge to its implementation. Despite this setback, Redmond remained steadfast in his support for Britain during World War I. Unfortunately for Redmond, his hopes and power were ultimately dashed by two major events: the rise of Sinn Fein (the political wing of the Irish Republican Army) and the Easter Rising of 1916. These developments marked a turning point in Irish politics and brought an end to Redmond's aspirations. The photograph not only showcases John Edward Redmond's influential role during a critical period in Irish history but also serves as a reminder of how quickly fortunes can change. It is through images like these that we gain insight into pivotal moments that shape nations and individuals alike.
