1969 Belfast Brick Bricks Celtic Celts Graffiti Graffitti Grafitti Roadway Terrace Terraced
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time during the tumultuous year of 1969 in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The image shows a group of young boys huddled around a Celtic football club flag, planted proudly on the pavement in front of a terraced house. The boys, dressed in jeans and sweaters, appear focused and determined as they engage in a lively conversation, oblivious to the graffiti and bricks scattered around them. The terrace houses, with their peeling paint and worn brick facades, line the narrow street, creating a sense of community and history. The roadway, filled with potholes and debris, is a reminder of the economic struggles faced by the residents. The atmosphere is one of resilience and solidarity, as the boys come together around their shared love for their football team and their sense of belonging to their community. This powerful photograph, taken in 1969, offers a glimpse into the daily life of the people of Belfast during a time of political and social unrest, and serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of community and the human spirit.
