James Connolly and his daughter Nora, both of whom were in the GPO in Dublin during the Easter Rising 1916. "The British government has no right in Ireland, never had any right in Ireland, and never can have any right in Ireland."

Another mural commemorating the women who participated in the Easter Rising of 1916. The main figure is Countess Constance Markievicz, who took part in the fighting in Dublin. She was captured and sentenced to death, but unlike Connolly and the others, her sentence was commuted on account of her gender. She was elected to the House of Commons in 1918 but, like other members of Sinn Fein, she did not take her seat in the Palace of Westminster. She was also the first woman in the world to hold a cabinet position (Minister for Labour of the Irish Republic, 1919–1922).
