    “This wallpaper is terrible - one of us will have to go!” Oscar Wilde
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia One of my colleagues in Library towers made the following comment about the general decoration. Overwhelming thing that struck me on first view was that the then residents were enthusiasts of orientalism, the Arts and Crafts movement and Art Nouveau design. The dado wallpaper with its use of dawn and dusk symbols looks to be directly influenced by the stylized flower forms of C.F.A Voysey’s work and Alphonse Mucha’s “Documents Décoratifs” . The chairs have been loosely and not that expertly covered in a Japanese style design of cranes, peonies and quince or cherry blossoms. The rugs look to be near eastern in design and the firescreen shows a kingfisher (I think), reeds and waterlilies, which I think are painted, rather than embroidered. The panel could be closely woven silk or panel in Chinese or Japanese style, if not origin.

    DannyM8 ^ Weird ! Reverse view - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000325954 - trying to find a calendar in all the clutter for a date.

A fine set of fetlocks!

    I can see now why the carpet in Pooles studio looks so treadbare at times. This photo also tells us that his studio was on the ground floor. Busoni might have been the name of the horse?

    Taken looking over the wall from the People's Garden in Phoenix Park. GeoHive 25" shows the greenhouses.

    From the archive, a Malton which is earlier and in colour!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Per the DIA it may be by James Gandon or may be William Gibson, and opened in 1790. That Malton is from 1794 when it was brand new.

    What became of the front door?

    A synonym for the Royal Infirmary could be the Royal Pain!
