    Politicians of this caliber are as rare as hens teeth nowadays! Or am I just a grumpy old man?

    Who is the "mythical or former hero" behind ? 6 April 1966 was a Wednesday ...
  • O Mac said:
    He'd certainly be contender for the 1966 largest bags under the eyes award.

Nice statue sir

    beachcomber australia Beautiful subtle colour.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    I think the painting says "May 1903" bottom left, so presumably the photo has to be then or after.

  • John Spooner said:
    The Dublin Leader of Saturday 19 December 1903 had an article by Robert Elliott about an exhibition of Walter Osborne's works at the Academy rooms in Abbey Street
    In Room III. there are several pencil studies, water colours, and a few oil studies by Walter Osborne, which latter have formed the basis of some of his larger paintings. Among the water colours is an unfinished one of Mr. John Hughes in his studio, which I had the pleasure of seeing Osborne working on at the time, shortly before his lamented death,
    Walter Osborne died on 24th April 1903.

    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."

    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.
