Capel Street Bridge (formerly Grattan Bridge). Dublin, 1963

On a sunny day in Dublin in 1963, the ornate cast-iron railing of the Capel Street Bridge, formerly Grattan Bridge, casts long, rhythmic shadows across the pavement. Two women in mid-century coats and hats walk towards the camera, leading the eye down a bustling street lined with commercial buildings. Signs for businesses including "E. SMYTH & CO" and "UMBRELLAS LTD" are visible on the right, while in the distance, the grand, classical facade of a colonnaded building anchors the lively urban scene.
