Removing Conried's body from Metropolitan Opera House (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Markus Trapp said:
    The name of the director of the Metropolitan Opera ist Heinrich Conried, not "Conreid" as written in the title and the description of the foto. As Conried died on 27 Apr 1909, the foto can be dated correctly with 1909. Source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinrich_Conried
  • Art Siegel said:
    ..and there's a 1909 date in the margin.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    textundblog: Thanks for the information! We’ll look into it.
  • Dave Conner said:
    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Police History, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group.

    The Capuchin Archives think this is Irish National Convention of the Land League, Dublin, 1881.

    I see a related Facebook page suggesting the bearded gent at left is Michael Davitt.

    April 29th, 1880, in the Concert Room of the Rotunda in Dublin
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The note on the back says:

    Group of delegates at Rotunda Gardens
    N.I.L. or Land League?
    in eylidas [can't make that out]

    On the front it says:
    Richard Sheiling Sheehy Snr.
    (2nd row, old man standing)

    And at right there is an arrow identifying a David Sheehy
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley More than happy to accept September 1881 if the Capuchin Archives say so.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Per the DIB: Sheehy, David (1844–1932), parliamentarian and agrarian radical, was born 14 October 1844 in Broadford, Co. Limerick, second of three children of Richard Sheehy, mill owner, and Johanna Sheehy (née O'Shea)

Group of what may be foreign dignitaries

    I think the fez-wearing man is here, meaning that it is probably Tailteann Games dignitaries again:
  • guliolopez said:
    Some overlaps with this group? (Or am I just being swayed by the fez?) www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/18426438103/ [EDIT: Snap Sharon Corbet :) ]
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    guliolopez At least we have notes back this time!
  • John Spooner said:
    The account of the opening of the Tailteann Games in the London Times on Monday, Aug 04, 1924 says
    Mr Healy was accompanied by Sir John and Lady Lavery, and with him in the stand were Mr. Compton MacKenzie, Mr Augustus John, Mr G K Chesterton, Mr John MacCormack and Sir Edwin Lutyens, and a number of representative foreigners.
    Is that Augustus John third from left on the back row, with his best side towards the camera as in the Time cover? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augustus_John#/media/File:Time-maga... I'm not so sure now. [edit; I'm convinced it isn't him, but the picture of him in the London Times at the even's garden party has his head at exactly the same angle]

    "but what else do we know about them?" It is conspicuous, they are having a good time.
