Satirical Map of Ireland

About This Piece

Vintage Design

Published in London by Hodder & Stoughton in 1869.

Anthropomorphic map of Ireland.
The text below the image reads, ''And what shall typify the Emerald Isle? A Peasant, happy in her baby's smile? No fortune her's, though rich in native grace , - Herrings, potatoes, and a joyous face''.

The map was drawn by Lilian Lancaster Tennant (1852-1939) for 'Geographical Fun', a charming atlas of caricature maps of European counties, drawn (according to the preface) by a fifteen-year-old girl to amuse her sick brother.
The author of the text was William Harvey (1796-1873), a London doctor and journalist, best-known for his book 'London Scenes and London People', 1863.
Her maps contain many references to the political changes sweeping through continental Europe, with representations of Garibaldi and Bismarck.
