The mill wheel keeps on turning...

Where?

Description: The archivist trying to describe this image provided an elaborate title "River, rocky bed, between wooded banks, weir seen from dumstream, mill wheel mill, outflow to left" I await an explanation for "Dumstream" and a virtual sticky bun for the best version! The scene is wide and sylvan with an enormous mill building, probably a tidal river below the falls and a verdant river bank. Where is/was it?

Not everybody left Skibbereen it seems!

Where?

Description: This Mason image is a hive of industry with Looms, Spinning Wheels and a sewing machine to the fore! A fine bright room with lots of good light coming through the window, religious pictures on the wall probably indicate a local co-operative? Growing up the plaintive song "Skibbereen" was a party favourite but is seldom heard today!

The Wheel of Life

Salmon fishing at Lalholm, or more precicely Balholm!!

Where?

Description: From the fox hunt in Cork to, what I suspect is out forring, salmon fishing in Lalholm wherever that might be? The sheer cliff with the ropes running down to it reminds me somewhat of Carrick a Rede in Antrim where the locals made amazing adaptations in order to get down to the sea to capture salmon as they ran past that coast!

Longfield, Master of Fox Hounds is getting ready to lead the hounds out while in the background his retinue prepare for a days sport.

Unidentified but it looks like Wicklow?

Where?

Description: Somehow this reminds me of a number of places in County Wicklow. The ridge, the trees and the houses in close proximity to water. The one thing that throws me is the broad expanse of possibly tidal waters in the foreground. I wonder why those stakes are placed at the end of the falling water? Fish traps perhaps?

The Vandeleur Evictions

Where?

Description: Those among you Flickroonies who've been with us for a long time will be familiar the 1880s eviction photographs that we've posted over the years. They're mostly action shots of depredation and desperation. This one is rather different, with many of the dramatis personae pictured calmly sitting on the steps of Kilrush House. p.s.

Instead here is a portly young man with a suit that is just a little tight and a very pleasant smile on his face. From a photographic point of view this is a dreadful crop from another photo!

There is so much to see in this, not least the fact that there is no obesity here, these people walked wherever they went, worked around the farm and ate home cooked food!

Lennox Robinson bids you all a Happy New Year

Where?

Description: A name I have heard many times in the course of my life and yet I could tell you little about him. Lennox Robinson looking rather dapper with a fine wool overcoat, suit and dicky bow tie! We are back though many of those who normally visit us here will not be back just yet! For all of you may we wish you a Peaceful, Happy and safe New Year and especially for our friends in Australia. We watch in horror at the fires and you are all in our thoughts and prayers! UPDATE: Thanks especially to suckindeesel for giving us Tim Pat Coogan’s lovely description of this “tall, thin, tweedy man”... “When I knew him, he lived in a flat, large and comfortable, but still only a flat ... at Longford Terrace, Monkstown. ... One of the great sights of Monkstown in those years was Lennox, a tall, thin, tweedy man with a distant expression, being led by a very tiny Sealyham dog, at the end of a very long lead, on his peregrinations to and from Goggins pub, the very epitome of the Irish expression ‘the relics of auld decency’.” Photographers: Various Collection: Irish Personalities Photographic Collection Date: Circa 1920-1958 NLI Ref: NPA PERS71 You can also view this image, and many thousands of others, on the NLI’s catalogue at catalogue.nli.ie

An Australian? I think not!

Where?

Description: The title on this is Australia label, looks like New Zealand - Maori traditional dress but knowing Kiwis the last thing they would wish would be to be called Australian. Having said that, Australians would have a similar attitude but in reverse. This Mason image itself shows a heavily tattooed person with feathers in their hair and a typical Maori cloak. I wonder how that got into the Mason collection? UPDATE: Thanks very much for all of the fascinating contributions on this gentleman, who turned out to be Māori chief, Terero Tamati, (thanks BeachcomberAustralia). We got great information on the original New Zealand photographer, Elizabeth Pulman, from suckindeesel. Besides being a photographer, Pulman was an early proponent of photographic copyright protection, and her efforts resulted in its introduction into New Zealand law. We're indebted to Blue Mountains Library, Local Studies in NSW, Australia for beautifully detailed information about the tattoos, feathers, and ornamentation evident in the photograph of this Māori chief, Terero Tamati.

Lying out for the wake.

Where?

Description: Today we have a photograph of a man "laid out" in other words who has died and is in his coffin/bed while his friends, relatives and admirers come to pay their last respects. For some reason I think that this is a clergyman though in those days most people were dressed in a "habit" when they were being buried. It probably also means that the traditional Irlsh Wake was not going to have quite the same vigour as most! What can we find out about him and how is he an Irish Political figure?

Drawing (allegedly), unidentified building (definitely).

Description: Back on terra firma today, but we don't know where this building, described in our catalogue as "Drawing, unidentified building" was (or maybe still is). In Ireland or 'out foreign'?

A bit early for Bloomsday?

Where?

Description: Bloomsday 16 June 1954, has been illustrated before by the Wiltshire Collection, but this shot was taken indoors with two named personalities. The significance of Con Leventhal and Michael Scott escapes me. But I am sure the many Joyce scholars out there can enlighten me... The general consensus is that this image captures Abraham "Con" Levanthal (academic and literary critic), Michael John Scott (architect and one-time Abbey actor) and Patricia Scott (TCD grad and wife of Scott). All of whom would have been very familiar with Joyce's works and the art world in Dublin in general....
