This photograph of Padraic Pearse is richly decorated. Padraic Pearse was the son of Margaret Pearse and first President of the Irish Republic. Pearse was born Patrick Henry Pearse in Dublin on November 10th, 1879. Pearse joined the Gaelic League in 1896, and founded St. Edna’s school in 1908, and later St. Ite’s School for Girls. In 1914, he visited America on a lecture tour to raise funds for these schools, addressing the Emmett Commemoration in the Academy of Music in Brooklyn. Pearse read the proclamation of the Provisional Government of the Irish Republic in front of the General Post Office on April 24, 1916. He was executed in Kilmainham Jail, Dublin in the aftermath of Easter Week on May 3, 1916.
