    Clearly the date range must be 1914-16.

    "He was a 'doer' more than a writer". A couple of lovely photos of Seán MacDiarmada here in our Googley exhibition on the Signatories of the Proclamation. He looks so different with a beard.
  • O Mac said:
    The buttons, being on his left, would indicate that this photograph is reversed.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The webified version of the 1911 census does a very poor job of transcribing what the Gaeilgeors in the house wrote on the Census Form.

    O Mac Yes! On the companion photo the buttons are on the left, and his tie-pin wiggles the other way - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000029734

    Such an extraordinary image. What an impact it must have had upon the people of Dublin to have seen that.

    One of the interesting things about this shot is that you can just make out the fallen flagpole from which the "Irish Republic" flag flew - it's on the near top corner of the GPO. (At least, that's what I read somewhere years ago!)
