The Happy Couple

    An excellent portrait of a very handsome and demure young couple. As the (Major) Bishops Bride Limerick would have had potentially unpleasant connections for the young lady. Another Bishops bride was made notorious in the great Limerick saga "Drunken Thady and the Bishops lady" which may be summed up by the few lines below! I am sure that this young lady was nothing like the other and I hope that she lived a long and happy life?

    Tis true she lived, tis true she died,
    tis true she was the bishops bride,
    she lived like most ungodly ladies
    spending his Reverend Lordships treasure
    chasing the worlds evil pleasure.
    In love with supper, cards and balls
    and luxurious sin in festive halls
    where flaming hearts and flaming wine
    invite the passions all to dine!

    how interesting to see a woman from that time with a book in order to make the picture more beautiful :)
  • Nick Stewart said:
    A fine looking lady. Must have been a bit draughty though, judging by the blurred fronds behind her!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Débora Even if it probably is a school textbook! These studio portraits clearly segregate a Mrs from a Miss. While the latter may have a book, the former may have a women's magazine such as Lady of the House. A wife/mother has no time to read books?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Nick Stewart Blurred fronds, you say! You're right, and a thumb print bottom left that I hadn't noticed before...
  • Débora said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons I didn't know there was this kind of differentiation. interesting indeed! thanks!
