Scope and content
Albumen cabinet card images of the exterior and interior of the old Capuchin chapel on Church Street. These are photographs of the chapel constructed in 1796. The building consisted of a nave with two short transepts. The main entrance to the chapel was from Bow Street which was then a busy thoroughfare near Smithfield Market. The foundation stone for the present-day St. Mary of the Angels (which was built on the site of the old Chapel) was laid on 12 June 1868. With a cover annotated by Fr. Angelus Healy OFM Cap.: ‘Photos of old Capuchin Church, Church St., exterior and interior’. Original albumen cabinet card images by Chancellor Studios, 55 Lower Sackville Street, Dublin. The file includes later (and over-sized) reproductions of these prints by E. Brook-Smith, 140 Stephen’s Green, Dublin. It appears that Brook-Smith had a studio at this location from c.1909-19.
