EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history, depicting Daniel O Connell's refusal to take the Oath of Supremacy. Published in Boston and beautifully rendered in color lithography by Samuel Frizzell, this image exudes defiance and determination. Daniel O Connell, an influential Irish political leader, dedicated his life to fighting for Catholic Emancipation and the separation of Ireland from Great Britain. In this powerful scene, he stands tall amidst the grandeur of the House of Commons, boldly declaring his opposition to the oath before him. With conviction etched on his face and quill in hand, O Connell firmly states: "One part of this Oath I know to be false; and another I believe to be untrue". His words reverberate with courage as he challenges the authority that seeks to suppress his beliefs. The composition is rich with symbolism - documents scattered around him represent both resistance against oppression and a quest for reform. As a member of Parliament representing Catholic interests, O Connell fearlessly confronts those who seek to marginalize his community. This portrait not only immortalizes Daniel O Connell but also serves as a testament to unwavering dedication towards justice. It encapsulates an era marked by political turmoil and religious strife while celebrating one man's indomitable spirit in pursuit of freedom for all Catholics.
