EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a historic moment in time - "The Queen's Visit to Ireland". Created by Samuel Begg, this print showcases the Queen's procession towards the City Gates, while being cheered on by the inmates of the National Institution and Molyneux Asylum for the Blind. Published in The Illustrated London News on April 21,1900, this illustration beautifully depicts a heartwarming scene as Queen Victoria passes through crowds of enthusiastic supporters. Despite their sightless eyes and various disabilities, these individuals demonstrate their unwavering admiration for their beloved queen. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and strength displayed by those living with disabilities during an era when societal attitudes towards them were often dismissive or neglectful. It highlights how even in times of hardship, unity and support can be found within communities. Begg's skillful engraving brings forth intricate details that allow us to witness this extraordinary event from over a century ago. The print not only celebrates royal visits but also sheds light on issues surrounding disability at that time. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, we are reminded of the power of compassion and inclusivity. It is a testament to humanity's ability to overcome adversity and find joy amidst challenges.
