EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph that takes us back to the early 20th century. This print, created by an English School artist, showcases the rich history and cultural diversity of Ireland. The artwork was originally commissioned as an illustration for "The World at Home ABC" a children's book written by W Gibbons in approximately 1903. It forms part of a private collection and offers a fascinating glimpse into the ideas and stereotypes associated with different nations during that time. In this image, we see an Irishman traveling along a country road in his cart. The vibrant colors bring life to the scene, while intricate details highlight elements unique to Ireland's heritage. The letter 'I' prominently displayed on the cart signifies its connection to an alphabetical representation of countries. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also sparks curiosity about historical racial perceptions and how they were portrayed through art. It reminds us of the importance of understanding diverse cultures beyond mere stereotypes. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from their extensive collection, allowing us to appreciate its significance in both artistic and historical contexts. As we gaze upon "I, Irishman" we are transported back in time and encouraged to explore our own notions about race, nationality, and identity.
