    The coronation of Edward VII and his wife, Alexandra, as king and queen of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions took place at Westminster Abbey, London, on 9 August 1902. Originally scheduled for 26 June of that year, the ceremony had been postponed at very short notice, because the King had been taken ill
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The poster says 26 June, so it was put up before the cancellation, and would surely have been replaced before the event.

  • Niall McAuley said:

To the Seanad, with love!

    ...
    One of her most significant pieces was commissioned by Alice Stopford Green, it was to create a metal casket for a scroll with the signatures of the Free State senators. The casket, known as the Senate Casket, has gold, silver, and enamel on a copper foundation. The shape is based on that of the Gallarus Oratory.[5] Upon its completion in 1924, it received universal praise, being exhibited at the NMI and the Manchester Art Federation. When the Senate was dissolved in 1936, it was presented to the Royal Irish Academy.[4] Newland Smith reviewed the casket, described Cranwill was a "designer and craftswoman who understands the national Irish style and can interpret it, create anew within it, and add to the old and delightful forms a personality and expression quite new" ...
