EDITORS COMMENTS
Stephen Lucius Gwynn (1864-1950): A Tribute in Stone This evocative sculpture captures the essence of Stephen Lucius Gwynn, an Irish journalist, author, poet, and politician whose influential career spanned the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The image, circa 1922, presents Gwynn in contemplative repose, reflecting his profound contributions to Irish literature and politics. Gwynn's impressive resume included serving as a member of parliament for the Irish parliamentary party, representing Galway City from 1906 to 1918. His dedication to the cause of Irish self-governance was unwavering, and his eloquent speeches and writings were instrumental in shaping public opinion. A prolific writer, Gwynn penned numerous articles, essays, and books. He was a regular contributor to the prestigious "Colour Magazine," with several of his works appearing in Volume 17, November, published in 1922. His literary prowess extended to poetry, and his verses were celebrated for their depth and beauty. The sculpture's intricate details and lifelike features bring Gwynn's legacy to life, immortalizing his indelible impact on Irish history. The image, though devoid of color, retains a striking vibrancy, a testament to the enduring power of Gwynn's words and actions. Kathleen Scott, the renowned sculptor, created this masterpiece, capturing the essence of a man who dedicated his life to the pursuit of Irish independence and the enrichment of Irish literature. This sculpture stands as a testament to Gwynn's enduring influence and his place in the annals of Irish history.
