EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Sir William Shee, a prominent historical personality in Ireland. Born in 1804 and passing away in 1868, Sir William Shee holds the significant distinction of being the first Catholic judge in Ireland since the revolution of 1690. Engraved by D. J. Pound from an exquisite photograph taken by Ayall, this portrait captures Sir William's commanding presence and intellectual prowess. The attention to detail is remarkable, highlighting his refined features and dignified demeanor. Published in London in 1859 as part of "The Drawing-Room Portrait Gallery of Eminent Personages". Volume 2, this image serves as a testament to Sir William Shee's enduring legacy. It symbolizes a pivotal moment for Irish Catholics who had long been marginalized within the judicial system. As we gaze upon this vertical portrait print, we are transported back to a time when societal barriers were gradually breaking down. Through his appointment as a judge, Sir William Shee shattered centuries-old prejudices and paved the way for future generations. Ken Welsh's expert curation brings history alive through this evocative portrayal. This print not only commemorates an influential individual but also represents an important milestone on Ireland's path towards inclusivity and equality within its legal institutions.
