    We drove the Danes out of Ireland over 1000 years ago and there are still shiploads of them off our west coast! Are they heading to Greenland to repel the US invasion?????

    Per wikipedia: Griffith attended forty-one of the forty-two provisional government meetings held between 23 June and 30 July (1922)

    Where on Earth is he? That isn't Nelson's pillar behind him, but it is a smooth column on a plinth that must be 20 feet high.
  • Joe Muircheartaigh said:
    This is O'Connell Square in Ennis - that's the O'Connell Monument behind Griffith. It was always & still is the venue for political rallies in Ennis. Originally on this site was the old Ennis Courthouse, from where Daniel O'Connell would have been declared elected in 1828, while De Valera always held his rallies there after first being elected in East Clare By-Election 1917.

    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!

    You can't tell from this photo, but there is a forty foot celtic cross in the middle.
