Irish Historic Prints - Famine, War and Peace

One of the most interesting Historical Prints available on siopa.com is the Irish Emigrant Trail Map (Double Mount Frame), a wall map which charts the journey of over 2 million Irish emigrants who crossed the Atlantic Ocean to American and Canada in the decade of the Great Irish Famine (1845-1849). This piece of history captures the beginning of so many of the back-stories of Irish-American families and the 40-million Irish Diaspora of today.

Another fascinating print is the Book of Kells (Double Mounted) Framed Print, which shows an exquisite page from the unique Celtic manuscript (c. 797 A.D.), carefully reproduced with great care and in fine detail. At the heart of perhaps one of the most significant milestones in Irish history is the Signatory Shield of the 1916 Proclamation, featuring the portraits of the seven signatories of the 1916 Proclamation. Other coveted prints include the Framed Irish National Anthem Print; the Framed Complete Irish Coin Collection; the Framed History of GAA All Ireland Football Finals and the Framed Michael Collins Prints.
