Description
Republican mural, Cavendish Street, Falls, West Belfast, 1998. The mural is painted on the house of Daniel McCann, one of three IRA (Irish Republican Army) Volunteers killed on Active Service in Gibraltar, 1988; the other two volunteers were Mairéad Farrell and Sean Savage. In the mural the three Volunteers are depicted in the clouds above a mountaintop with the poem: 'It is found in every light of hope, It knows no bounds nor space, It has risen in red and black and white, It is there in every race. It lies in the heart of heroes dead, It screams in tyrant[']s eyes, It has reached the peak of mountains high, It comes searing cross the sky. It lights the dark of this prison cell, It thunders forth its might, It is the undeniable thought my friend, The thought that says 'I'm right!'. Celtic decoration around the portrait, and to the left, a memorial plaque. Republican
