Résumé : | Using the photographs taken by Robert French (1841-1917) - held in the Lawrence Collection at the National Library of Ireland - this film traces the social history of Ireland following the death of Charles Stewart Parnell in 1891 to the early decades of the 20th century. Places and events seen include: Dublin; Bray; Cork; the Prince of Wales' visit; Kerry (including the Lakes of Killarney and the Gap of Dunloe); Belfast (trains, theatres and music halls are presented). Also included are the first tram-lines to Portrush, Dunluce Castle, the Giant's Causeway, Bundoran, Dundalk and Drogheda. The introduction of motor cars and of moving pictures are also seen. The unique photographic record left by Dublin-born Robert French reveals an Irish now changed beyond recognition |
