EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history, depicting Richard Earl of Pembroke bidding farewell to his brother before embarking on a significant journey. The year is 1169, and Richard de Clare, the 2nd Earl of Pembroke, stands as a formidable figure in this medieval illustration. As Lord of Leinster and Justiciar of Ireland from 1130 to 1176, he played a leading role in the Norman invasion of Ireland. Drawn by H. Warren for the "History of Ireland" published around 1854, this artwork beautifully portrays the solemnity and gravity surrounding Richard's departure for Ireland. Clad in armor befitting a noble soldier of that era, Richard stands tall amidst his fellow soldiers who accompany him on this historic expedition. The image transports us back to the twelfth century when strong alliances were forged through blood ties and shared ambitions. In this scene filled with emotion and anticipation, we witness brothers parting ways temporarily but united by their common purpose. Richard de Clare's significance as a Cambro-Norman lord cannot be understated; he left an indelible mark on Irish history through his involvement in the Norman invasion. This portrayal serves as an enduring testament to his bravery and leadership during those turbulent times. Ken Welsh's skillful capture allows us to delve into this pivotal moment from centuries past—a glimpse into an age where honor was paramount and leaving one's homeland meant embracing uncertainty for greater aspirations beyond its shores.
