EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a momentous occasion in 19th-century Ireland - a grand dinner held at Dunkettle by Mr T L Lewis, a prominent figure from London. The event was organized as an expression of gratitude towards the hardworking tradesmen and laborers who toiled tirelessly on the Cork and Youghal Railway. The scene is filled with life and jubilation as approximately 800 individuals gather together for this extraordinary feast. The long dining tables stretch across the room, adorned with elegant tablecloths and sparkling silverware. The atmosphere is one of camaraderie, as conversations flow freely amidst laughter and cheer. The image showcases not only the celebration itself but also highlights the significance of railways during that era. Railways played a crucial role in connecting towns and cities, transforming transportation systems, and fostering economic growth. This dinner serves as a testament to the appreciation shown towards those who contributed to such monumental projects. As we gaze upon this historical print, we are transported back in time to witness this remarkable event unfold before our eyes. It reminds us of the power of unity, hard work, and generosity - values that transcend time and continue to shape societies today.
