A Mighty Shout of Exultation - Celebrating the Legendary Boar, c1910
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by artist Stephen Reid, we are transported to a moment of immense joy and triumph in ancient Ireland. The scene depicts a group of Ulstermen, their faces filled with exhilaration as they raise their voices in unison. This powerful image captures the essence of an extraordinary event that has become part of Irish folklore. The central figure in this tale is Mac Datho, a noble lord renowned for possessing the most magnificent boar in all the land. Both the King of Ulster and the Queen of Connacht yearn to possess this legendary creature, igniting fierce competition between these two great rulers. As we delve into TW Rolleston's epic work "The High Deeds of Finn" we uncover a world steeped in myth and legend. Through his masterful illustration, Reid brings to life this pivotal moment when Mac Datho's prized possession becomes not only a symbol of power but also an emblematic force that unites his people. Cloaked figures stand proudly amidst rolling green hills, embodying centuries-old traditions and customs unique to Ireland. Their bearded faces reflect wisdom gained from ancestral knowledge passed down through generations. This remarkable artwork serves as a testament to our shared human history and reminds us how legends can shape our collective identity. It invites us to immerse ourselves in tales woven with bravery, rivalry, and celebration—a glimpse into Ireland's mythical past that continues
