EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print captures the heart-wrenching scenes of evictions, trials, and Irish Land League activity in the southwest of Ireland. The sketches depict the harsh realities faced by tenants during this tumultuous time in history.
In the first sketch, the special artist of this publication is shown amidst a crowd, perhaps misunderstood or met with resistance as he documents these tragic events. The second sketch shows a defiant pig darting back into a hut, symbolizing the refusal to be evicted from their homes.
The third sketch portrays a trial of Moonlighters - men who bravely resisted under cover of darkness against oppressive authorities. Their activities included putting up posters and punishing those who cooperated with the government.
Lastly, we see the artist visiting huts built at Coercion Hill by the Irish Land League for evicted tenants. These powerful images serve as an important reminder of Ireland's turbulent past and highlight the resilience and determination of its people in fighting for their rights.
Decades may have passed since these events took place in December 1886, but their import remains significant in understanding Irish history and struggles for land rights. This print is not just a snapshot from the past; it is a poignant reminder of perseverance and resistance against injustice.
