    article on the process of photochrom: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochrom "Photochrom[Note 1] (also called the Aäc process) prints are colorized images produced from black and white photographic negatives via the direct photographic transfer of a negative onto lithographic printing plates."

    Wow that's interesting, no camera obscura, no cliff railway and the old houses at the very end of the seafront are still standing! Also that last but one block doesn't look right (at this distance) to be Alexandra Hall, I wonder if they predate it ?
  • Chris Samuel said:
    This photo must also pre-date 1895 as Alexandra Hall hasn't been constructed yet.

    Must be before 1880, or we would see this building on the West pier. Edit - no, squinting harder at megazoom, I DO see that building, so it is after 1880. Reading the DIA entry, it is a vague c.1880, so not much help. Towards the end of the STP range, anyhow.

    I strongly believe that there is a dog (stereo dogs) in this photo. I just have not found it yet!

    Fascinating to see what several of those buildings were from the old 6" map - maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,728699,739061,10,8

    From the same viewpoint for comparison - Mr French / Lawrence (c.1900 - the church is 1899 but no tower) - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000040815 And the LPP (1990) - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000354525

    I think the large clipper ship is the 'Great Victoria' built in France in 1854, rebuilt in 1864. (ref - jamesobrien.id.au/genealogy/james-obrien-and-mary-smith/g... )
  • GrenadierGuardsDmr said:
    Pre 1891 when more ferry jetties were built where the "Great Victoria" is berthed.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Apologies - I have not updated the information for this photo. It is NOT the 'Great Victoria' but the 'Torridon' and the year is 1888. Probably 26/1/1888. See comments and research -
