Padraig Pearse Reading the Irish Proclamation on the GPO steps on 24th April 1916 Print.

There are moments in history that change a nation forever.

Easter Monday, April 24th, 1916 was one of those moments.

Standing outside Dublin’s General Post Office, Pádraig Pearse read aloud the words that would echo through Irish history — the Proclamation of the Irish Republic.

This artwork captures that powerful moment as Pearse reads aloud the Proclamation beneath the rising Irish tricolour. The atmosphere, the determination, and the courage of that day are brought to life in dramatic detail, creating a striking piece of Irish historical art.

Created to commemorate the 110th Anniversary of the Easter Rising (1916–2026), this print honours the vision, sacrifice and legacy of those who declared Ireland’s independence.

Whether displayed in a home, study, Irish pub, or heritage space, this piece serves as a powerful reminder of the moment Ireland stepped forward to claim its future.

A meaningful addition for anyone proud of their Irish roots, this artwork resonates especially with those across the Irish diaspora who continue to carry Ireland in their hearts.

Printed on high quality archival paper, the artwork captures the depth, colour and atmosphere of the original image, making it a striking centrepiece for any wall.

• Irish heritage homes
• history enthusiasts
• Irish-American families
• home bars and Irish pubs
