Waiting for President Kennedy to drive past during his visit. O'Connell Monument, Bachelor's Walk / O'Connell Street. Dublin 1963.
At the foot of the O'Connell Monument in Dublin, a crowd awaits President John F. Kennedy’s motorcade during his 1963 state visit. The bustling O'Connell Street scene captures men sitting on a bench and others standing in anticipation, while children playfully climb the monument’s stone base, near its large, sculpted winged figures and an Irish wolfhound. In the background, city buildings are adorned with flags for the occasion.
