Print of a black and white photo of George Colley, Séan Lemass and Jack Lynch following Lynch’s victory to succeed Lemass as Taoiseach and Colley’s loss in 1966 taken by Colman Doyle.
Colman Doyle was one of the first documentary-style photographers in Ireland. And this picture is a classic. It was taken in 1966 just after the Fianna Fáil leadership election. George Colley has just been informed that he’s lost the election to Jack Lynch, who is calling his wife to tell her the news. Seán Lemass, the retiring Taoiseach, is in the centre. Lynch was Lemass’s preferred candidate. He went on to serve two terms as Taoiseach.

Cleared of all criminal charges, Haughey fought to regain a seat in the cabinet, and later became party leader and Taoiseach.

Black and white photograph of Francis Bacon taken by John Minihan in London in 1976 with the written caption ‘Francis Bacon was born in Dublin in 1909, he died in Madrid, Spain in 1992. Bacon was one of the most important painters of the twentieth century. I first met the artist in the early 70s and would photograph him in London and Paris. Bacon worked with photographs, many of his friends were photographers.’
Francis Bacon was born up the road on Baggot Street. But like many other Dubliners – from Edmund Burke to Brendan Bracken – he saw himself as an Englishman. This photograph of Bacon was taken by John Minihan in 1976. Bacon’s paintings were famously bleak and emotionally raw. Margaret Thatcher once called him “that man who paints those dreadful pictures.”
