EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative election propaganda poster from 1923, depicts Eamon De Valera, a prominent Irish political figure, making a bold and passionate statement during the tumultuous political climate of the Irish Civil War. The image captures De Valera, then a Sinn Féin leader, standing defiantly against a backdrop of chaos and violence, with the words "We will wade through the blood of our fellow Irishmen and through the blood of Members of the Government." The Irish Civil War, which lasted from 1922 to 1923, was a tragic and divisive period in Irish history, pitting nationalists against those who supported the newly established Irish Free State. The conflict arose from disagreements over the Treaty of Anglo-Irish Agreement, which granted Ireland partial independence from British rule but fell short of full sovereignty. De Valera, who had led the Irish rebellion against British rule during the Easter Rising of 1916, was a key figure in the anti-Treaty forces. His unyielding stance against the Free State and his call to "wade through the blood" reflected the intense emotions and determination of both sides in the conflict. The use of such graphic language in election propaganda was not uncommon during this period, as political leaders sought to galvanize their supporters and gain an edge in the heated political landscape. The image of De Valera, with his fierce expression and unwavering commitment, serves as a powerful reminder of the passion and conviction that drove the Irish political scene during this pivotal moment in history. This photograph, taken from the extensive collection of historical images at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into the past and sheds light on the complex and often violent political landscape of Ireland during the 1920s.
