Castletown House, Kildare, 1990

    One leg shorter than the other?

    Resisting the urge to tag cars (as we are wont to do), but I think there's a VW hatchback (maybe a Jetta or Passat), a Renault 5, and a Micra (or maybe a Fiesta). I can't see the OPW allowing anyone (staff or visitor) to park their hatchbacks out front like that any more. More interesting though is the restoration work on the parapet top right. And the trees. Comparing to the 19th century photo they seem to be the same trees and shrubs. And I suppose why wouldn't they be - after 100 years of care and topiary.

    Subpopulus Hibernia 100 years ago the photographer would have had his camera mounted on a tripod complete with spirit level. He would also have a a "rising front" on his camera to avoid the dreaded "converging verticals" we see here. Progress eh?? Bob

    Ha. Let's debunk the date. The shadows on this one are actually pretty good so I will hie me to the solar calculator to start with (though frankly, 45 degrees above the horizontal looks pretty much like July 6th to me).

    derangedlemur Watching you anxiously! Don't want anyone to argue that this poster was printed on a recently patented weatherproof paper and may actually have been in situ for years... :)
  • derangedlemur said:
    Actually about 60 degrees above the horizon, which makes it roughly eleven o'clock on the 6th of July.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Could be a week or so either side. I haven't put much care or attention into gauging the angles.

    He did a good job didn't he? Slightly different but not so much as to make any difference.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Swordscookie I think so too!
