  Researchers Beware! There is a nearby photo with two very similar battleships - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000523770 Also nearby Royal Yacht 'Victoria & Albert (II)', with a man and woman on the bridge - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000523768 Wiki - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMY_Victoria_and_Albert_(1855)

  National Library of Ireland on The Commons Yes! It is the White Ensign - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Ensign The Krazy Kataloguers should have gone to spekksavers!

  This Crowninshield looks to be en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Crowninshield "Francis Welch Crowninshield (June 24, 1872 – December 28, 1947), better known as Frank or Crownie (informal), was an American journalist and art and theatre critic best known for developing and editing the magazine Vanity Fair for 21 years, making it a pre-eminent literary journal."
