  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Tammy Well, in the main, they all look a lot more relaxed (and even happy) than incumbents of other group photos of religious in our collections...

    That looks like Bishop Len Brennan, 2nd right front row!
  • Jim said:
    Nice photo, a couple of them are actually smiling!
  • Eamonn Bolger (Ireland) said:
    Fantastic. The friars are still with, albeit in smaller numbers, and the Franciscan Friary is a beautiful building.

    Can't believe I know something and I'm first! That's Albert Bibby on the left. Capuchin.

    Reminds me of an unrepeatable-on-here old joke ...
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    And Father Dominic O'Connor on the right. It's a Cashman photo, apparently.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    I think they are standing at the gate of the Capuchin Friary in Dublin. Streetview.

    NYT of August 21, 1916 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9D06EED91E3FE233A... had an article with headline, "8,000 CATHOLICS GET MESSAGE FROM POPE; Three Cardinals and Apostolic Delegate Occupy Thrones at Cathedral Mass. OPENS CATHOLIC WEEK. Great Throng Sees Procession of High Church Dignitaries and Eminent Laymen."

    The [New York] Sun., August 21, 1916, Page 4 chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83030431/1916-08-21/ed-... featured a very similar picture with the same men and the same building.

    I think this was taken at E. 50th and Madison Ave., on the back side of St. Patrick's Cathedral. 2009 Street View: www.google.com/maps/@40.757867,-73.975605,3a,75y,10.82h,8...

    That might be a Christian Brother in the cassock on the far left (though I'd have expected a different collar) but robes with 3 knotted rope cinctures indicate that most of these men are Franciscans - the beards further identify them as Capuchins (Order of Capuchin Friars Minor) The two clean shaven men behind the Capuchins appear to be wearing robes of the same color as the Capuchins, but with capuches. These are likely Conventual Franciscans (OFM Conv.)
