    Out foreign? Another case of the Dillons On Tour? (Based on an unscientific feeling about the style of the building top left)

    Perfect capture
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Carol Maddock I think you're right that it's out foreign. My completely unscientific guess is Heidelberg.

    I think after a herculean amount of research that this is a Statue of Hercules.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    DannyM8 I think you are right. But if it is Grecian (see catalogue), then he is Heracles - Greek - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heracles Roman - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hercules

    It looks like a Royal Dublin Fusiliers badge on his collar. This regiment was from 1881 to 1922 and was based in Naas. However, if he was a Dillon, why didn't he join the Connaught Rangers?

    Oberland... German for Highland.

    about 2 years ago you posted a photo "Swiss 94 b oberland" that was three portrait cards positioned at the base of a photostand. as it was a difficult one , one contributor admitted that they were "floored" :-) ... beachcomber

    The Fusilliers were the local regiment for Dublin, Kildare, Wicklow and Carlow. Can anybody pick our man out from this listing? www.nam.ac.uk/soldiers-records/persons?ss=%7B%22q%22:%22D...

    The Swiss 94 B Oberlan pictures are from an album in which the Dillons went to Switzerland in 1894. But it includes other shots, like a glider and a snowfight in Trinity College.
