Burning the Houses of Evicted Tenants - A Glimpse into the Turmoil of Ireland's Land War
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This powerful print captures a haunting scene during the infamous Land War that plagued Ireland from 1880 to 1892. The image, created by artist A Forestier and featured in The Illustrated London News on January 29th, 1887, depicts the heart-wrenching consequences faced by Irish tenant farmers and their families. In Glenbeigh, County Kerry, amidst a backdrop of rolling countryside and rustic buildings, flames engulf homes once belonging to evicted tenants. This act of destruction serves as a chilling symbol of hardship and poverty endured by those caught in this bitter dispute between landlords and farmers. Amidst the chaos stand men and women - faces etched with despair - witnessing their lives upturned. Women clutch babies tightly while flames lick at what was once their sanctuary. Police officers patrol the area as law enforcement becomes entangled in this political struggle for land rights. The image speaks volumes about societal divisions and power imbalances prevalent during this era. It sheds light on an unjust system where eviction became punishment for those who dared challenge oppressive landlords. As we gaze upon this monochrome engraving over a century later, it serves as a poignant reminder of past struggles while urging us to reflect on our own society's commitment to justice and equality.
