Artwork marks women's entry to legal profession

Hanna Fine Art has announced the forthcoming release of a fine art print of Stephen McLean’s painting ‘Entering the Four Courts’.

The painting by Irish artist Stephen McClean is being published in a limited edition of just 250 prints to mark the centenary of the Sex Disqualification (Removal) Act 1919, which enabled women to become solicitors, barristers, jurors and magistrates. 

The release also honours and celebrates the role and contribution of women to the legal profession in Ireland over the last 100 years.

Members of the Law Society of Ireland are invited to attend the formal launch of the print at King’s Inns tonight from 6pm - 6.30pm.

Every print in the edition has been personally hand-signed by Mrs Mary Robinson (the first woman President of Ireland) and by Mrs Justice Susan Denham (the first woman Chief Justice of Ireland), to create an important and historic Irish legal collectable.

The print will raise funds and awareness for Breast Cancer Ireland and The Denham Fellowship.

The print is available to pre-order directly from the publishers, Hanna Fine Art.

The cost of the double-mounted and framed print (25” x 29”) is Sgt £395, including delivery to your home or office address.
