The path tells us that they are arriving at the Mansion House, Dawson St. Dublin. catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000238668

O Mac Excellent.
guliolopez said:
Well done O Mac - That seems pretty unequivocal. The man on the right looks desperately familiar. But I can't place him...
BultacoFan said:
If they are walking directly into the Mansion House, then the shadows suggest mid-morning and the lack of overcoats on the background figures suggests a good day, presumably summertime, therefore not a meeting of the 1st Dail in January 1919.

Something interesting is happening out of frame on the right.

I was going to suggest that it was during the hunger strike by Terence McSwiney but that was in 1920. There were other hunger strikes but of course you had Barrett, O'Connor, McKelvey and Mellowes executed in November 1922? Could it have been a vigil for them? It looks not unlike Government buildings today but why do you think that it is not London???

Swordscookie Is it very unscientific and unprofessional to say "just a feeling"??
Colin said:
I'd like to suggest that this was in fact taken on Prince's Street North, in Dublin.......(that's the one that goes down by the side of the GPO on the way into what is now the entrance to Arnott's multi-storey car park). The pillars look the same but there aren't as many of them nowadays, perhaps a by-product of the extensive damage caused to the building?

I'm in two minds. The heavy showing of patriotic symbols (flags in hand, harp pins on lapels, etc) make me think this is in the UK somewhere. I know this sounds a bit backwards, but I don't think that a crowd in Ireland would've felt the need to wear their colours quite so loudly. On the other-hand, if this was taken during the Civil War, then it's probably a vigil for Anti-treaty hungerstrikers. Possibly outside a prison. Maybe Mountjoy if it's for one/other of the MacSwiney sisters.

At school I hated history with a vengeance as Joyce put it "a nightmare from which I am trying to escape". Dull and dry - dates, dates and more dates. When I see pictures like these they bring history to life and it becomes interesting. Thank you for posting them.

You're very welcome, Richard! Really appreciate you taking the time to comment...
