Message on a bottle: Jameson’s Limited Edition Artist

Every St. Patrick’s Day, renowned name in whiskey Jameson proudly displays the creative merits of its homeland with a limited edition bottle created by an Irish artist. This year the work of Steve McCarthy graces the famous label, merging historical and contemporary Dublin in mere inches—now that’s talent! McCarthy has an appreciation for both words and pictures: his design centers on the Irish phrase “chancing your arm”—taking a risk. But what does risk taking have to do with a drawing of St. Patrick’s Cathedral? (And is that a pair of stilettos in the background?) Lend the creator your ear to find out the story behind his illustration: it’s a little bit of Ireland, a little bit of Jameson, and a little bit of McCarthy himself.
