IE LMOD 253 · Unidad documental simple · Twentieth Century

2 pictures woven at the exhibition. The first of a Dublin scene in black and white with red details, gold trimming and bordered by green. The second of of O'Connell (Sackville) Street and Bridge in black and white with gold trimming and bordered by green.
The Irish International Exhibition was the key social event of the first decade. It was hosted on the grounds of Herbert Park in Ballsbridge between May and November of 1907. The aim was to promote domestic industry by showcasing Irish products, as well as encouraging the development of commercial links by inviting all countries to exhibit their goods. Nearly three million visitors came to ogle at everything from industrial machinery to fine art, but the main attraction was a full-scale Somali village and the rare whimsy of a water chute and switchback railway. One of these pictures shows the central exhibition hall; the other captures a scene from O’Connell Bridge.
