Abstract

This volume, which accompanies an exhibition at the McMullen Museum of Art at Boston College, offers the first comprehensive look at the Irish dimension of the international arts and crafts movement. The exhibition celebrates the centenary of one of Ireland's major 20th-century arts and crafts achievements, the Honan Chapel in Cork City, consecrated in 1916 in a period of tumultuous political change.
