EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful wood engraving, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, depicts a horrifying scene from the Irish Rebellion of 1641. The image captures the brutal persecution faced by English Protestants at the hands of Irish Catholics during this tumultuous period. The print is based on an illustration found in a late edition of "The Book of Martyrs" by John Foxe, originally published in 1563. It serves as a chilling reminder of the violence and religious conflict that plagued Europe during the 17th century. In this haunting portrayal, we witness helpless English Protestants being drowned by their Irish Catholic oppressors. The composition emphasizes their suffering and martyrdom as they face their tragic fate. A halberdier stands guard nearby, symbolizing both protection and complicity in these acts of violence. Through this artwork, we are confronted with themes of religion, persecution, and human cruelty. It serves as a testament to the historical struggles endured by different religious groups throughout history. This particular print is part of a private collection and was likely intended for educational or historical purposes rather than commercial use. Its inclusion in Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate its artistic merit while also reflecting on the dark chapters that have shaped our collective past.
