Replica viking vessel VIKING

    good shot!
  • Donald Mingo said:
    Is it possible that I might have the original . . . I have an 8 x 10 and it looks original . . .
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    Donald Mingo That's interesting! Our pic appears to be a photograph of a postcard. I don't know if you saw the link to the book on the replica and its journey (published 1893) but the same image appears on page 8. Would be great to locate the original!
  • Donald Mingo said:
    Yes, I have this picture, but it does not appear to be a copy, but rather an original. Now, I could be wrong, but it is stunningly clear compared to this picture, and it is between an 5x7 and 8x10 What do you think?
  • Donald Mingo said:
    It's 8 1/2 by 6 1/2 & it looks soooo much better than this one!

    Mr French / Lawarence supplies a wider view earlier - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000322134

    Edit - He is holding a stick in his right hand.
  • O Mac said:
    Looking through the survey photos on the NBHS (NIAH) site it appears Mr Boru is not there anymore.
    NLI needs a Missing Statue tag.

    O Mac As you wish!

    And you reminded me of this statue, so added Moving, rather than Missing Statue tag.

    “AI Overview The famous wooden carving at Celbridge Abbey in County Kildare, historically localized as the "Brian Boru Statue", is a rustic, weather-worn sculpture. It stands within the tranquil, historic grounds along the River Liffey that were famously associated with Jonathan Swift.
    Historically, this piece is an example of local folklore rather than an authentic depiction of the High King.
    It is one of a few scattered, traditional representations of Brian Boru found around Ireland”

    Still no news of his current whereabouts
  • Suck Diesel said:
    Has the statue succumbed to decay, being wooden, and no longer exists?
