Group of Capuchin Friars

An image of a group of Capuchin friars. The group includes (second on the left), Fr. Ignatius Collins OFM Cap., (second on the right), Fr. Dominic O'Connor OFM Cap. and (first on the right) Fr. Colman Griffin OFM Cap. A manuscript annotation on the cover is addressed to Fr. Stanislaus Kavanagh OFM Cap. (1876-1965).

Greenhouse, Rochestown, County Cork

Two plates showing a Capuchin friar tending plants in a greenhouse in Rochestown, County Cork. The cover annotation suggests that the friar is Fr. Bernardine Harvey OFM Cap. (1874-1953).

Graiguenamangh, County Kilkenny

A view of Lower Main Street in Graiguenamangh, County Kilkenny, in about 1905. The image was probably taken (or acquired) by Fr. Angelus Healy OFM Cap. (1873-1953), a Capuchin friar who was a native of Graiguenamangh. A horse drawn carriage (called a ‘brake’) can be seen carrying passengers on the right of the road. These were extensively used in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as a means of public transport and conveyance. Going in the opposite direction is what appears to be some sort of parade of horses and jockeys (in apparently elaborate silks).

Frederiksholms Kanal, Copenhagen, Denmark

A view of Frederiksholms Kanal, a canal in central Copenhagen, Denmark, in about 1910. The prominent domed building in the centre of the image is the Christiansborg Palace which is the seat of the Danish Parliament. The large steeple is the 300 ft spire of St. Nicholas (Lutheran) Church which opened in 1912. The image appears to show scaffolding around the spire which suggests that the photograph was taken during its reconstruction in the years from 1909 to 1912. The church now houses the Nikolaj Contemporary Art Center.

Fr. Salvator Maria Corrigan OFM Cap. (1835-1919)

Fr. Salvator Maria Corrigan OFM Cap. (1835-1919) standing outside the main door to the Church Street Capuchin Friary in Dublin. The annotation on the cover suggests that this is a poor quality image with the subject blurred and a transparent ‘ghost image’ of another friar captured on the original glass plate.
