About the Item
The Ground Plot of the Castle of Carrigafoyle, County Kerry, Ireland
This historical engraving depicts the ground plan of the Castle of Carrigafoyle, a 15th-century fortress located in County Kerry, Ireland. The castle's strategic layout is meticulously illustrated, showing its fortified walls, defensive structures, and surrounding waterways. Labeled as "The Ground Plot of the Castle of Carrigafoyle," the engraving provides a top-down view of the castle’s design and its integration with the surrounding landscape.
Notable features include the Shannon Estuary, nearby wooded areas, and the castle’s moat-like water defenses, emphasizing its stronghold nature. The attention to detail suggests that this engraving was intended for military or historical documentation, possibly as part of a publication describing the siege of the castle during the Desmond Rebellions in the late 16th century.
Artistic and Historical Context:
Carrigafoyle Castle was a prominent O'Connor family stronghold, famously besieged and captured by English forces in 1580 during the First Desmond Rebellion. This ground plan likely accompanied narratives or records of the military campaign, showcasing the architectural sophistication and defensive planning of Irish fortresses of the period. Such engravings were often included in military or historical compendiums from the late 16th or early 17th centuries.
