EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1967, where we find ourselves in the exercise yard of Mountjoy Prison in Dublin. The image, beautifully illustrated by Ryckebusch from a sketch by M. Barrere, captures a significant moment in history. The scene depicts a large group of Fenian prisoners engaging in outdoor activities within the prison walls. Despite their confinement, these men are determined to maintain their physical well-being and resilience through exercise. Walking briskly around the enclosure, they create an atmosphere of solidarity and strength. The imposing fence surrounding them serves as a reminder of their restricted freedom, while also highlighting the strict security measures enforced within this correctional facility. A lone prison guard stands watchfully nearby, ensuring order is maintained and that no rules are broken. This powerful photograph not only showcases the daily routine within Mountjoy Prison but also sheds light on the resilience and determination exhibited by these imprisoned individuals during challenging times. It serves as a testament to human spirit even when faced with adversity. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking print from Hulton Archive's collection, we are transported back to an era where struggle was met with unwavering resolve. It reminds us of our shared humanity and encourages reflection on society's approach towards rehabilitation and justice for all individuals involved.
