In honor of Easter, we are sharing two images from the Cuala Press Ephemera Collection (EPH 5002)<\/a>. The Cuala Press was founded in 1908 by Elizabeth Yeats, sister of the poet W. B. Yeats and the artist Jack B. Yeats, who illustrated many of the books and broadsides published by the press. The press was operated in Dublin by Elizabeth and her sister Lily Yeats, and later by George Yeats (William’s wife), through the mid-1940s. In addition to their brother, the Yeats sisters employed various Irish women to create illustrations, including Beatrice Glenavy (Elvery), Elizabeth Corbet Yeats, Pamela Colman Smith, Dorothy Blackham, and Mary Cottenham Yeats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Happy Easter to you and yours from all of us in Rare Books and Special Collections at the University of Notre Dame.<\/em><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
