Being able to see evocative photographs such as this, taken in emotional times when history really was in the making, makes me appreciate more than ever the immense and irreplaceable value of photography, and of the National Library's archive. This is an outstanding image, not least because it's immediate and unposed... and the subjects, of course, are of profound importance to Ireland's history. Utterly beyond value - and a joy to view, nearly 90 years later.

Wonderful historic vintage photo in B&W!!! Not knowing Irish heroes as well as y'all, can you tag the soldiers so one can know which is Michael Collins and Risteard Mulcahy in this photo. Thank you so very much!!!

Considering it was dismantled in 1939 (by DeValera), I certainly never saw it! It was replaced in 1950.

The DIA records it as G.A. designer of temporary cenotaph erected in memory of Arthur Griffith and Michael Collins, 1923

Archiseek has more info on it and Atkinson: Atkinson was headmaster of the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art, 1918-1937, and first director of the National College of Art.

Ha ha! Anne Dolan's book "Commemorating the Irish Civil War" has a section on it titled "The elephant on Leinster Lawn", and says some labelled it "the dire apparition of the Griffith-Collins singularity", so I guess it was not universally popular!

You can't tell from this photo, but there is a forty foot celtic cross in the middle.
