    It really is a stunning work of art, look at that detail, brilliant.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    It is fantabulous. This is the WEST face - full details of the carvings here - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muiredach's_High_Cross#West-face . It is fascinating and shocking to see how much has eroded in 150 years with the wikipedia hi-res photo - upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e9/Muiredach%27s...
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia That's what struck me on the relief of the carving. Think of all the weathering by wind and rain and frost and pollution since this photo was taken 150-ish years ago...
  • corncrake68 said:
    Although it was around eight hundred years old when the photo was taken in the 1860s the cross still looked comparatively new. Just goes to show the pollution that has occurred over the past hundred plus years. Industrial revolution and all that.

    An early and rather crude enclosed bus, I could swear I've seen a photo of a similar bus with the date 1905-1907 somewhere....

    Nice Photo - Good Album.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    He seems to be Joseph Plunkett's brother according to his wiki article.

    Ballymascanlon House was the home of "Katherine Plunket (born as Catherine Plunket; 1820 – 1932) was an Anglo-Irish aristocrat from Ballymascanlan, County Louth, a prolific botanical illustrator and the oldest person ever to die in Ireland, at 111 years and 327 days."

  • Sharon Corbet said:
    There is a remark that "Title inscribed on verso in pencil, with note in ink "Note by James O'Donovan"." James O'Donovan seems to be assumed to be Seamus O'Donovan. Ballymascanlan House was the Plunkett family home, and O'Donovan was also sent a photo of Count Plunkett at the same time.
