EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled "Easter Rising: The Rebellion Begins," captures a pivotal moment in Irish history. Taken on April 24, 1916, during the Easter Rising, the image depicts a group of Irish rebels standing in the GPO (General Post Office) in Dublin, raising their rifles in defiance. The Easter Rising was a pivotal moment in the Irish struggle for independence from British rule. Led by a small group of nationalists, the rebellion saw intense fighting in the streets of Dublin for six days before British forces were able to quell the uprising. The event is considered a turning point in Irish history, as it galvanized support for the Irish nationalist cause both in Ireland and abroad. The photograph, with its powerful imagery of rebellion and determination, serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men and women in the name of Irish freedom. The number 168 in the title likely refers to the number of rebels present in the photograph, while CO904 may be a reference to a specific collection or series of photographs. The image, with its rich historical significance, is a must-have for any collection focusing on Irish history or the struggle for independence.
