Proclamation of the Irish Republic - Metal Wall Plaque (Orders for this plaque will be despatched mid March)
The Proclamation of the Republic, also known as the 1916 Proclamation or Easter Proclamation, was a document issued by the Irish Volunteers and Irish Citizen Army during the Easter Rising in Ireland, which began on 24 April 1916. In it the Military Council of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, styling itself the "Provisional Government of the Irish Republic", proclaimed Irish independence from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The reading of the proclamation by Patrick Pearse outside the General Post Office in Sackville Street (now called O'Connell Street), Dublin's main thoroughfare, marked the beginning of the Rising.
This is a fascinating reproduction of the famous document, superbly printed and embossed, and would grace any pub, bar-room, kitchen, living or gamesroom wall.
Available as a 20 x 30 cm metal wall plaque priced £16.99
