    Considering it was dismantled in 1939 (by DeValera), I certainly never saw it! It was replaced in 1950.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The DIA records it as G.A. designer of temporary cenotaph erected in memory of Arthur Griffith and Michael Collins, 1923
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Archiseek has more info on it and Atkinson: Atkinson was headmaster of the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art, 1918-1937, and first director of the National College of Art.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Ha ha! Anne Dolan's book "Commemorating the Irish Civil War" has a section on it titled "The elephant on Leinster Lawn", and says some labelled it "the dire apparition of the Griffith-Collins singularity", so I guess it was not universally popular!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    You can't tell from this photo, but there is a forty foot celtic cross in the middle.

    Negotiations closed by the signing of the treaty at 2:20am on the 6th December 1921

    Seoirse Gabhán Ó Dubhthaigh; 21 October 1882 – 10 June 1951 Hmmm, appears to be early to mid 40s. Also of import to consider, President of Dail Eireann, Arthur Griffith died, 12 August 1922. The date of the photo is improbable, based on that. God bless Ireland. Brexit may offer the best opportunity for reunification with the northern six counties.

    The window frames and those overhead "protuberances" are suggestive of a ship setting. Perhaps the mail boat departing or arriving.
  • Dún Laoghaire Micheál said:
    The policemans helmet may betray which side of the pond.
  • Dún Laoghaire Micheál said:
    On mature reflection, I'm now inclined towards a railway setting. Didn't they directly board a train on arrival home at Carlisle Pier?

    The Glasnevin Trust has a numbered version available, with some of the names already filled in.
  • Swordscookie said:
    Sharon Corbet That cuts out most of the fun of the shot Sharon but it is interesting how many major players were present!
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    There are more names available in this Examiner article.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Swordscookie The numbering is helpful, though :-)

    Keogh had to have taken the photograph from the roof of the Boland Chapel. Streetview The grave to bottom right is that of William Dargan another nation "builder". James O Dea's photographs are mostly of his work. "St. James’s Brass and Reed Band, Mount Brown, Dublin 8, is by far Ireland’s oldest band. It was established in 1800 but early records trace back as far as 1737."
