Marlborough St / Talbot St with Nelson Pillar (demolished 8 March 1966). Dublin 1963.
A bustling scene unfolds at the corner of Marlborough and Talbot Streets in Dublin, 1963. Down the thoroughfare, crowded with pedestrians and a double-decker bus, stands the tall column of Nelson's Pillar, demolished three years after this photograph was taken. In the foreground, a woman tends a small outdoor stall selling produce and "H&C TEA" beneath a shop awning. An ornate lamppost is prominent, while a bilingual sign directs pedestrians to a car park. The corner building is detailed with distinctive stone quoins.
