Lough Neagh is a 1983 by Rita Donagh, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Rita Donagh’s drawing *Lough Neagh* from 1983 blends personal and political layers. Made during a tough time in Northern Ireland, it ties to the conflict called “the Troubles.” The lake sits near a prison at the center of protests and hunger strikes. Maps of Ireland and Ulster appear in her 1980s work, reflecting the border dispute that still divides views. Look up Donagh, Rita.
