Albert POWER (1881 - 1945)Head of Terence McSwiney, Lord Mayor of Cork, in Brixton Prison, (1920)White marble, 32cm high, 26cm wideSigned and dated 1920Terence MacSwiney was born in Cork in 1879, son of John MacSwiney and Mary Wilkinson, and was one of eight children. In 1885, his father emigrated to Australia leaving Terence and the other children in the care of their mother and his eldest daughter.Terence was educated by the Christian Brothers in Cork city, but left at fifteen to become an accountancy clerk and continued his studies and matriculated successfully. He continued in full-time employment while he studied at the Royal University (now UCC), graduating in 1907.In 1901 he was a founding member of the Celtic Literary Society, and in 1908 he founded the Cork Dramatic Society with Daniel Corkery and wrote a number of plays for them. Described as a sensitive poet-intellectual, MacSwiney’s writings in the newspaper Irish Freedom brought him to the attention of the Irish Republican Brotherhood. He was one of the founders of the Cork Brigade of the Irish Volunteers in 1913, and was President of the Cork branch of Sinn Féin. Following the rising, he was interned under the Defence of the Realm Act in Reading and Wakefield Gaols and subsequently interned in Shrewsbury and Bromyard internment camps until his release in June 1917. It was during his exile in Bromyard that he married Muriel Murphy of the Cork distillery-owning family. In the 1918 general election, MacSwiney was returned unopposed to the first Dáil Éireann as Sinn Féin representative for Mid Cork, succeeding the Nationalist MP D. D. Sheehan. After the murder of his friend Tomás Mac Curtain, the Lord Mayor of Cork on 20 March 1920, MacSwiney was elected Lord Mayor. On 12 August 1920, he was arrested in Cork for possession of seditious articles and documents. He was summarily tried by court martial on 16 August and sentenced to two years’ imprisonment in Brixton Prison.In prison he immediately started a hunger strike, while eleven republican prisoners in Cork Jail went on hunger strike at the same time. On 26 August, the British cabinet stated that “the release of the Lord Mayor would have disastrous results in Ireland and would probably lead to a mutiny of both military and police in the south of Ireland.”Terence MacSwiney’s hunger strike gained world attention. The British government was threatened with a boycott of British goods by Americans, while four countries in South America appealed to the Pope to intervene. Protests were also held in Germany and France. Attempts at force-feeding MacSwiney were undertaken in the final days of his strike, but despite this he fell into a coma on 20 October 1920, and died five days later after 73 days on hunger strike. His body lay in St George’s Cathedral, Southwark in London where 30,000 people filed past it. Fearing large-scale demonstrations in Dublin, the authorities diverted his coffin directly to Cork, where his funeral attracted huge crowds. Terence MacSwiney is buried in the Republican plot in Saint Finbarr’s Cemetery in Cork. Arthur Griffith delivered the graveside oration.The present work was made after Albert Power’s visit to Terence MacSwiney in Brixton Jail as the Lord Mayor was dying. Power, whose name is synonymous with Irish nationalist sculpture, was born in Dublin and entered the stone carving profession as a young apprentice to the Smyth family. At 13, he began evening classes at the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art where he picked up important figure-drawing and other fine art skills from William Orpen, and sculptors John Hughes and Oliver Sheppard. As a student he absorbed the ethos of the new ‘Irish art’ movement, not only through the school’s involvement with the Celtic Revival, but also through the wider mood of nationalism then prevalent. Amongst his many commissions were bronze busts of the new Irish President, Arthur Griffiths, and the army chief Michael Collins. He also completed death-masks for both men which were added to the Cenotaph on Leinster Lawn next to Dail Eireann. Power died in 1945 of complications following an accident in his studio.
