EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Peter Shepherd, we are transported back to the historic moment when Bernadette Devlin arrived at the Scarmen Tribunal in October 1969. Capturing the essence of a tumultuous era in Ireland's history, this image encapsulates both the determination and resilience of a young political activist who would go on to become an influential figure. As she steps out of her car, Devlin exudes confidence and purpose. Her eyes reflect a fiery spirit that was unafraid to challenge societal norms and fight for justice. Dressed impeccably, she stands tall amidst a crowd of onlookers, undeterred by their gaze or potential opposition. The Scarmen Tribunal itself was a significant event during the 1960s in Ireland. It aimed to investigate allegations of police brutality against civil rights marchers in Londonderry earlier that year. Devlin's presence at such proceedings symbolizes her unwavering commitment to advocating for equality and human rights. Peter Shepherd's skillful composition captures not only Devlin's physical presence but also the charged atmosphere surrounding her arrival. The monochrome tones lend an air of timelessness to the photograph, emphasizing its historical significance. This print from Memory Lane Prints serves as a powerful reminder of an extraordinary woman who fearlessly challenged authority during one of Ireland's most turbulent periods. It is an homage to Bernadette Devlin’s indomitable spirit and her enduring impact on Irish politics.
