EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the momentous occasion of the opening of the National Gallery of Ireland on 30 January 1864. The event took place in the heart of Dublin, Ireland, and was presided over by His Excellency the Earl of Carlisle, who served as the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland at the time. The Earl, dressed in full regalia, can be seen in the foreground, about to pull the ribbon across the entrance of the gallery, signifying its official opening. The crowd gathered outside the gallery, eager to witness this significant moment in Irish cultural history, is a testament to the anticipation and excitement surrounding the establishment of a national art institution. The 19th century was a time of great cultural awakening in Ireland, and the opening of the National Gallery was a symbol of the country's growing appreciation for the arts. The National Gallery of Ireland was established in 1854, and its collection initially consisted of just over 100 paintings. However, it has since grown to become one of Europe's finest art museums, with a collection that spans over 3,000 years of art from Ireland and Europe. The gallery's inauguration marked a turning point in the history of Irish art, and it continues to be an important cultural institution in the country today. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a tangible connection to the people and events that shaped the cultural landscape of Ireland in the 19th century. It is a reminder of the power of art to bring people together and to inspire and enrich our lives.
