I know it’s a bit late for this what with St Patrick’s Day being yesterday but a friend of mine, Philip Kennedy is an illustrator based in London and made this illustrated parade of great Irish figures to mark the day yesterday and thought your readers might like it.
Name those marchers anyone?

No idea on the last person…
Such a fantastic illustration! Great to see Ireland’s diverse mix of Irish heroes and heroines being celebrated. The last person is Eileen Gray, btw. A pioneering furniture design and architect of the Modern movement – but sadly her important contributions have oftren been overlooked. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eileen_Gray http://www.dezeen.com/2013/09/09/eileen-gray-was-disappointed-that-she-was-forgotten-zeev-aram/
