OSCAR WILDE.
Oscar was always hated in establishment quarters in England and always much loved in Ireland. We loved his wit, his perfect put-downs, his bon mots and his funny, erudite and thoughtful plays. More than anything he epitomized freedom of thought and freedom of expression and did he pay the price for that, traduced, destroyed and jailed famously in Reading Goal (Jail).  Now we have a superb and newly iconic statue of Oscar right opposite his house on Merrion Square, Dublin so we can all do a selfie with him, I included 🙂
I did two posters of Oscar, one in two-colour purples and a black and white one to fit the series I was working on back then.
