History: The Irish Free State Army emerged from the pro-treaty forces following the establishment of the Free State in 1922. Soldiers like this one fought through the complex and divisive Irish Civil War (1922–1923), which pitted former comrades against one another. Equipped with a mix of British and locally sourced gear, these troops often operated in urban and rural environments under difficult conditions. This figure captures the caution and readiness that defined these soldiers during one of Ireland’s most turbulent chapters.
