EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: This 19th-century engraving titled "Boycotting in Ireland: Mike Flynn, Aged 70, who was Shot in the Leg with Marbles on Suspicion of having Paid his Rent, 1886" offers a glimpse into a turbulent period of Irish history. The image portrays an elderly man named Mike Flynn, who became a victim of violence during the boycott movement that swept through Ireland at the time. Intriguingly composed using illustrative techniques popular during the Victorian era, this vintage print showcases the artistic prowess and attention to detail prevalent in historic engravings. The retro-styled image transports us back to an era where art served as both documentation and commentary on societal issues. The scene depicted here reflects the struggles faced by individuals like Mike Flynn, whose loyalty towards their community led them to endure physical harm. Shot in the leg with marbles due to suspicions surrounding his rent payment, Flynn's story represents countless others caught up in similar acts of retribution during this tumultuous period. As we gaze upon this evocative piece from Arkheia's Liszt Collection, it serves as a reminder of how history can be preserved through visual mediums. This engraving not only captures a specific moment but also pays homage to those who fought for justice amidst adversity. It stands as a testament to human resilience and serves as an invitation for reflection on past struggles that continue to shape our present-day society.
