EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the momentous occasion of Henry Grattan, an Irish politician (1746-1820), moving the Declaration of Rights in the Irish House of Commons on 16 April 1782. Grattan, depicted here in formal court dress complete with epaulettes and meticulously arranged buttons, stands confidently before the tiled floor of the House, surrounded by attentive members. The Declaration of Rights, a significant milestone in Irish history, granted the Irish Parliament the power to legislate on all matters except for those relating to trade and commerce with other countries. This marked a crucial step towards Irish self-governance and autonomy from British rule. The intricate details of the print, from the folds of Grattan's coat to the ornate decor of the House, transport us back to this pivotal moment in history. The print, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a captivating glimpse into the past and the political struggles that shaped the Irish nation.
