    A magnificent place to visit if you are only in Dublin for a short time. It has medieval churches, Celtic High Crosses and Round Towers. Today the valley is heavily wooded.

    This pic would fit very well into the group: www.flickr.com/groups/irish_round_towers/

    The photographer of this view is Robert French (1841-1917), who was chief photographer for William Lawrence's Photographic Studio in Sackville Street, Dublin. The National Library of Ireland hold the original glass negative in their Lawrence Collection, acquired in 1943 after the firm closed. - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000325656

    pellethepoet -- I cannot thank you enough! Identifying the photographers who took the images published as photochroms is a long-standing dream. There's so much more to be learned from knowing who provided the photos and the other purposes they might have been used for. Better dates for the image content being one basic aspect. I'll let trialsanderrors know, too. (And we'll update our catalog record to add Robert French's name and the link to NLI.) Very best, Helena (LOC)

    The Library of Congress No problem Helena. Thanks for your response. I'm pretty confident the majority of the other Irish photochroms in the series will also turn out to be from the Lawrence collection. I'll let the NLI's merry band of Flickroonies know, and I'm sure you'll be peppered with corresponding photos and links.
