    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/55597723@N02] And for us, a sobering thought.

    I remember that! Not the opening of the Phoenix Park but the race that Sonia ran in that year. She was flying and put many fine male athletes far behind her. Great shot and a terrific way to remind us of the bounty that the Park has proven to be for people down through the centuries!

    Great shot of one of my favourite athletes!

    The bust on the right might provide a clue, unless they are in the habit of moving busts around at Trinity College Library.

    Michiel2005 I'd doubt that they do! Presuming this is Socrates?
  • Michiel2005 said:
    Possibly, but I suppose you have to visit TCL to be absolutely sure. Pictures of the Long Room are rare on the internet (as photography is not allowed there) and I don't remember it from my visit.
  • Swordscookie said:
    Tunney was very likely to visit the long room and would not have been out of place there at all at all!! Famously while training for his great battle against Jack Dempsey one of the great US boxing writers found him reading Shakespeare and wondered if it was just for effect? It wasn't! Tunney was intelligent, literate and very well read and more than just a bruiser. He has lots of relatives still in Ireland and they're no "daws" either!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Swordscookie And from what I read about him in the Irish Independent reports of the visit, he was also very shy and quiet, hence not easy to interview for the newsmen who were far more used to very extrovert sportsmen...
