EDITORS COMMENTS
The powerful print captures Captain William Redmond, a prominent Irish politician and member of parliament, leading Irish troops at the Front during the First World War in 1916. At that time, while Sinn Feiners were rebelling in Ireland, Captain Redmond fearlessly commanded the Irish Brigade alongside his fellow soldiers from the Dublin Fusiliers. The caption highlights an additional horror expressed by Mr. John Redmond, brother of Captain William Redmond and leader of Ireland. He laments that on the very day when news arrived about Irishmen killing their compatriots in Dublin's streets, they also received word of how their own brave soldiers from the 16th division had valiantly retaken German-won trenches at Hulluch in northern France. Drawn by Samuel Begg based on an official photograph, this image reflects not only the bravery and dedication of Captain William Redmond but also symbolizes the complex emotions experienced by many during this tumultuous period. The Great World War: A History edited by Frank A Mumby serves as a historical reference for this poignant moment captured through Begg's artistry. This print is a reminder of both sacrifice and unity amidst conflict. It portrays a man who was not only a military officer but also a statesman deeply connected to his country and its people. Through his leadership on foreign soil, Captain William Redmond exemplified courage and loyalty to Ireland while facing unimaginable challenges on the Western Front.
