Thought that it was time to include a photo of us! This is the National Library of Ireland building on Kildare Street, Dublin. We first opened to the public on Friday, 29 August 1890.
The next day's Irish Times, recorded that the opening was "a very brilliant affair in every way. There was an enormous concourse of visitors, specially invited - a brilliant assemblage, in truth, of learning and beauty, and of personages of distinction in the social and official world of this country."
Date: Circa 1895
