Viceregal Lodge, Dublin: A Glimpse into the Past through a Hand-Coloured Victorian Photo This exquisite hand-coloured photograph captures the grandeur of the Viceregal Lodge in Dublin during the Victorian period. The image transports us back in time, offering a rare and intimate look into Ireland's rich history. The Viceregal Lodge, also known as Government Buildings, served as the official residence of the British Vice-King or Viceroy of Ireland. Built between 1821 and 1823, the neoclassical mansion is located at the heart of Dublin's Fitzwilliam Square, a tranquil and picturesque urban park. The photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases the Viceregal Lodge in all its splendour. The meticulously hand-coloured details bring the building to life, with its red brick facade, tall columns, and intricate window designs standing out against the lush green surroundings. The use of vibrant colours adds a touch of elegance and charm to the image, making it a true vintage treasure. The lantern slide, likely used for projection during the Edwardian era, further emphasizes the photograph's historical significance. The early 20th-century technology allowed people to enjoy visual presentations in their own homes, providing a glimpse into the world beyond their immediate surroundings. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and history of the Viceregal Lodge in Dublin during the Victorian period. It offers a unique perspective into Ireland's past, showcasing the country's architectural heritage and the grandeur of the British colonial rule.
