Waiting for President Kennedy to drive past during his visit. O'Connell Monument, Bachelor's Walk / O'Connell Street. Dublin 1963.

A large crowd of men, women, and children gathers at the O'Connell Monument on Dublin's O'Connell Street, awaiting President Kennedy's motorcade during his 1963 visit. To gain a better vantage point, numerous spectators, mostly young men and boys, have climbed onto the ledges and statues of the multi-tiered monument. Below, a dense crowd stands behind a low metal fence, with a row of bicycles parked on the cobblestone street in the foreground.
