Through the Lens of Time: The Horgan Brothers'' Ireland 1890-1940
Step back in time through the extraordinary photographs of The Horgan Brothers, who captured Ireland during its transformation from British rule to an Independent Republic. From their base in Youghal, these pioneering photographers documented people at work and play—courting kings and exotic travellers, farmers and fishermen along the Blackwater River. They preserved pivotal moments in Ireland''s history: portraits of First World War soldiers who never returned home, volunteer camps, and the political activists who would shape the nation''s destiny. This stunning collection brings their world to life again, offering a remarkable window into an Ireland that was vanishing even as they preserved it on film. Page after page reveals the extraordinary in the ordinary—a hidden time captured by two brothers who knew exactly where to point their lens.
