1987 Carmencita Hederman in Enniskillen
IE LMOD 558 · Item · Twentieth Century

A black and white photography of Lord Mayor Carmencita Hederman presenting a book of condolences signed by the people of Dublin to the people of Enniskillen following the Enniskillen bombing November 1987.

In November 1987 eleven people were killed when an IRA bomb exploded during a Remembrance Day Service in Enniskillen. Carmencita Hederman, who was Lord Mayor at the time, remembers: “When a Book of Condolences was opened in the Mansion House, we kept having to run back down to Eason’s to buy new books because so many people turned up. At a memorial service in Enniskillen, I presented the book on behalf of the people of Dublin.” This photograph was taken during that service – note the presence of one Charles J Haughey.

1996 Colm Tóibín by Perry Ogden
IE LMOD 697 · Item · Twentieth Century

A black and white photographic portrait of Colm Tóibin in a room full of books with pages scattered on the ground taken by Perry Ogden.
Colm Tóibín stands in his office near Fitzwilliam Square. One of Ireland’s more astute commentators – and surely Dublin’s greatest networker – he was born in Wexford but has spent much of his life in the capital. Tóibín published his first novel, The South, in 1990, partly based on his experience of living in Barcelona. His other works include The Blackwater Lightship (1999) and a wonderful collection of short stories called The Empty Family (2010).

IE LMOD 429 · Item · Twentieth Century

Colour photograph of College Green taken by Charles Cushman on 7 June 1961.

Trinity College takes up most of the background in this photo, with buses passing – College Green is still a bottleneck. The pedantic modern mind notes the absence of lane markings and traffic islands.
