EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating moment in Irish folklore, as lords and ladies gather to witness the arrival of a mysterious figure known as the "wee man". Taken around 1910, this image transports us back to an era when legends and myths held great power over people's imaginations. The scene unfolds at the court of Ulster, where Fergus, King of Ulster, welcomes Iubdan, King of the Leprechauns or little folk. The dwarf poet Eisrt has ventured from his realm to visit these noble figures. Dressed in vibrant colors that reflect their regal status, both men and women eagerly await this extraordinary encounter. Stephen Reid skillfully illustrates this enchanting tale from ancient Ireland in "The High Deeds of Finn" written by Thomas William Hazen Rolleston. Through his artistry, Reid brings to life the meeting between mortal monarchs and mythical beings. As we gaze upon this image today, we are transported into a world steeped in legend and wonder. It serves as a reminder of how storytelling has shaped cultures throughout history. This photograph is part of the Historica Graphica Collection and showcases not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. Let us marvel at this snapshot frozen in time—a testament to our enduring fascination with mythological figures like Fergus and Iubdan—and appreciate how they continue to captivate our imagination even after more than a century has passed.
