Scope and content

A Christmas greeting card from Peadar Seán Doyle, a Fine Gael Teachta Dála. The card shows the then recently unveiled eighteen-meter-high granite obelisk on Leinster Lawn on the Merrion Square side of Leinster House, the seat of the Oireachtas or parliament of Ireland. The obelisk (designed by the OPW architect Raymond McGrath) commemorated Arthur Griffith, the President of Dáil Éireann, Michael Collins, the revolutionary leader, and Kevin O’Higgins, a leading Irish Free State minister who was assassinated in 1927.
