Lily O'Brien. Housghold goods shop. Dublin 1963.
An elderly man in a dark overcoat and fedora strides along a damp Dublin sidewalk in 1963. The glistening pavement reflects the overcast sky and brick facades. Central to the scene is Lily O'Brien's household goods shop at number 21, its display windows filled with everyday items—groceries and canned goods in one, buckets and bowls in the other. Advertisements for Wills's Woodbines cigarettes and Lyon's Tea add to the texture of this candid street photograph.
