A view of Merrion Square, Dublin, on an overcast day in 1963. A Georgian building with an ornate wrought-iron balcony commands the corner, with the Gaeltarra Eireann headquarters visible in the background at 34 Westland Row. The streets are lined with classic automobiles of the era: an Austin A40 is parked at the curb, while a Ford Zephyr, a Mercedes-Benz 220, and a Ford Zodiac populate the scene. A woman stands on the corner kerb near an ornate lamppost, with shopfronts for 'Antiques' and 'Brophy’s' lining the adjacent road.
