EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the moment of defiance and determination in the eyes of Thomas Fitzgerald, 13th Earl of Kildare, as he renounces his allegiance to King Henry VIII of England in 1534. The historical context of this event is significant, as Fitzgerald was one of the most powerful lords in Ireland and his defection marked a turning point in the English conquest of the island. The year was 1534, and Henry VIII was seeking to assert his authority over Ireland, which had long been governed by the powerful Fitzgerald family. Tensions had been building for some time, with Fitzgerald resisting English attempts to impose new taxes and religious reforms. When Henry sent a delegation to Ireland to demand Fitzgerald's submission, the Earl responded by publicly renouncing his allegiance to the English monarch. This act of defiance was a bold move, as it put Fitzgerald at odds with the might of the English crown. However, he was not alone in his resistance, and he was able to rally support from other Irish lords and the Irish people. The rebellion, known as the "Silken Thomas" rebellion after Fitzgerald's nickname, lasted for several years and saw some significant victories for the Irish forces. Despite ultimately being unsuccessful, Fitzgerald's rebellion is an important chapter in the history of Ireland and the English conquest. This print, from Mary Evans Picture Library, provides a vivid and evocative depiction of the Earl's moment of defiance, capturing the drama and significance of this pivotal moment in Irish history.
