Girls selling badges for St Patrick's Day. O'Connell street. Dublin 1963.

On Dublin's bustling O'Connell Street in 1963, a young girl in a uniform and beret sells badges for St. Patrick's Day. Caught in a shaft of sunlight, she stands before a man in a trench coat and flat cap, who looks down as if reaching for money. In the background, an observer leans against a stone pillar near the prominent storefront of the "PILLAR CAFE ICES," with signs for "THE CAMERA HOUSE" and "ROCHES" visible further down the pavement.
