This Poster-Print celebrates the eighteenth and nineteenth century doors of Dublin, perhaps the most iconic images of the city’s architectural Golden Age. Many theories have been put forward to explain why they are so brightly painted and ornamented, none unfortunately likely to be true. It has been suggested, for instance, that the practice originated at the time of Elizabeth 1, when a Puritan administrator decreed that all the city’s door and window frames should be the same drab brown colour. In an act of the defiance, the artistic and expressive population responded by painting them in the brightest hues they could find. A similar story dates from reign of Queen Victoria in the late 1800’s. Some claim that after the death of her beloved husband Prince Albert, the grieving monarch ordered all the doors in Dublin painted black in his memory. Once again the rebellious Dubliners refused and turned their front doors into a riot of colour.

This Poster-Print celebrates the Long Room Library, Trinity College Dublin.

One of the greatest treasures of Trinity College Dublin, in addition to the Book of Kells, is the Old Library Building and in particular the Long Room. This is situated on the first floor of the Old Library – the location chosen by the designers over three hundred years ago so as to preserve the printed materials from the elements – and is a joy to behold. The room is the longest single-room library in Europe at 65 meters in length and contains over 200,000 of some of the oldest books in the library’s possession.

This Poster-Print celebrates the Book of Kells illuminated manuscript.

Turning Darkess into Light 

The Book of Kells is a lavishly decorated Gospel manuscript produced by Irish monks, probably on the Island of Iona, near Scotland, around the year 800. Preceding the Gospels, the book also contains lists of important details within the Gospels and summaries of the narratives. The importance of the book cannot be over emphasised and its beauty is such that it has been compared to ‘the work of angels’. The richly patterned pages, initial letters, often in the shape of animals of contorted human form and interlaced drawings are unique. The purpose of the illuminations has been speculated upon by many over the centuries. Apart from their intrinsic beauty and the joy they convey, it should be remembered that few were literate at the time of the book’s construction and in the words of Pope Gregory the Great, the illustrations contribute to ‘a living reading of the Lord’s story for those who cannot read’.

Those who don’t know Irish pubs, and the interesting people who frequent them, will always possess only a superficial knowledge of Irish life and culture. The Irish pub is not only an excellent guide to many attractive centres of celebration; it is also a helpful and civilised introduction to higher education in a convivial atmosphere. This is a necessary text for all those in search of enlightenment and laughter.
