History Is Written By The Winner

The mask of “revisionism” is lifted from the “truth” of “Irish history”. The quote is here attributed to Miriam Daly of the IRSP (web), but it or something like it has been attributed to Napoleon, Göring, and Churchill.

The mural was originally painted “Aug ’96” by Ciaran McKernan, Brian O’Loan, and Miriam’s son Donal Daly. (An in-progress shot can be found on Sean Patrick Allen’s Facebook page.) The mural is now in poor condition owing to all the graffiti along the bottom.
