EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Boycotting in Ireland" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Irish Land War. The engraving, created by Charles Edwin Fripp, showcases the intense and violent atmosphere of that era. The image captures a scene filled with tension and suspicion. Miss Gertrude Wood stands at the forefront, her arms outstretched as if trying to calm down the chaos unfolding around her. In the background, we see Mr. Herbert and Farmer Hickey engaged in a heated argument while others brandish weapons defensively. The aftermath of a murderously dead shot party raiding is evident as shocked onlookers witness these outrages taking place under the moonlight. The Irish Land War was marked by acts of violence against those who refused to pay rent or were suspected of boycotting certain individuals or places. In this particular instance, Galvin's farm becomes a battleground as Mike Flynn's house and Father's house are attacked. Dooling's farm in Castleisland also falls victim to these conflicts. The presence of various weaponry highlights both sides' determination to defend their positions amidst this turbulent period. This engraving serves as an important historical document shedding light on one aspect of Ireland's struggle for land rights and independence during that time.
