Mr. O'Connell, in his triumphal car,1844. Creator: Unknown.

Mr. O'Connell, in his triumphal car, 1844. Crowds in Dublin, Ireland, celebrate the release from prison of nationalist politician. 'At length Mr. O'Connell...[was] seen ascending the triumphal car; and then came forth a shout, so loud, so long, so vehement, and so enthusiastic, that even the man of firmest nerve must for the moment have felt himself shaken by it. Wherever the eye could reach upon the space beneath it, was occupied by a human being, and each and all were sending forth a peal of acclamation. The shout of those in front of the prison was caught up along the whole line of procession, and for at least five minutes the air seemed to be rent with a thunderburst of joyful cheerings, that came reverberating back upon the utterers, making every heart beat quicker, and every eye glance brighter'. From "Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I.
