EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Election Sketches, the Irish Party at the National Hall, Glasgow" takes us back to a significant moment in 19th-century politics. The image showcases a gathering of influential figures from the Irish Parliamentary Party at the National Hall in Glasgow. Published on November 14,1885, as an illustration for The Illustrated London News, this print offers a glimpse into the world of political campaigning during that era. The composition captures various elements that define this historic event. A prominent figure seated on a chair is identified as Mr. Joseph Biggar, an important member of parliament representing United Ireland. Surrounding him are other politicians and delegates engaged in passionate discussions about elections and party strategies. The setting itself exudes grandeur with its ornate furnishings and upholstered goods adorning the hall's interior. Each detail contributes to creating an atmosphere befitting such a crucial gathering of political minds. Noteworthy personalities like Reverend Canon Monaghan and Mr. Redmond can also be spotted among those present at this momentous occasion. Their presence further emphasizes the significance of this meeting for both national and international politics. Through this remarkable engraving by English School artists from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how politics unfolded during one particular election campaign in Glasgow's National Hall over a century ago.
