I have a vague memory of seeing this in the RDS in Ballsbridge?

I was just gonna say DannyM8 that it didn't like any room in the National Museum that I know. But those pillars behind do look like the columns supporting the mezzanine in the RDS exhibition hall. I may however just be proving that I don't spend enough time in our capital's cultural institutions :) www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/21050077350/

WALTER POLLOCK HAMILTON VC ... www.inistioge.ie/150/Walter_Pollock_Hamilton_VC_.html "A slightly over-life-size statue of Hamilton striding over an Afghan threatening him with a knife was produced in bronze-painted plaster by Charles Bell Birch in Dublin in around 1880. It is now on display in the National Army Museum, Chelsea, as is a plaque to him (set up in the Punjab Frontier Force Chapel, then in the sanctum crypt of St. Lukes Chapel, Chelsea)."

Displaying this scene during the Siege of the British Residency in Kabul on September 3, 1879: "Hamilton faced the oncoming Afghan wave, and emptied his revolver into them before being overwhelmed and killed. His stand allowed his 5 surviving men to retreat inside the compound." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_the_British_Residency_in_K...
