The Visit of the Duke and Duchess of York to Dublin, 1897, (c1900). Creator: W.D
The Visit of the Duke and Duchess of York to Dublin, 1897, (c1900). The future King George V and his wife Mary of Teck on a royal visit to Ireland, ...touring the distressful country for three weeks. The Royal visitors were welcomed at Dublin with an enthusiasm that swept aside all sombre prognostications and increased with each day of their sojourn in the Emerald Isle...The tour was a brilliant success from a social, and a happy experiment from a political point of view, and the Times summed up the result by asserting that "the spirit of loyalty to the Throne was, at least, as strong in the Plantation as in any other part of the United Kingdom". From "Cassell's History of England, Vol. IX". [Cassell and Company, Limited, London, Paris, New York & Melbourne]

The Visit of the Duke and Duchess of York to Dublin
EDITORS COMMENTS
(c1900) is a captivating photograph depicting a significant moment in Irish and British history. This image captures the future King George V and his wife, Mary of Teck, during their three-week tour of distressful Ireland. The royal visitors were met with an unprecedented enthusiasm that dispelled all gloomy predictions and grew stronger with each passing day of their stay in the Emerald Isle. The Duke and Duchess of York are seen here in the midst of their tour, with the Duke gesturing towards something off-frame while the Duchess looks on. Surrounding them are members of the British Army, including cavalrymen with their horses and bayonets at the ready. The scene exudes a sense of grandeur and pageantry, with the horse-drawn carriage in the background adding to the regal atmosphere. The royal visit was a resounding success from both a social and political standpoint. The Times reported that the spirit of loyalty to the Throne was as strong in 'the Plantation' as in any other part of the United Kingdom. This photograph is a testament to the positive impact of the visit, which helped to strengthen the connection between Ireland and the British monarchy. This image is a valuable historical record, taken from Cassell's History of England, Vol. IX, published by Cassell and Company, Limited, in the early 20th century. It offers a glimpse into a bygone era, showcasing the grandeur of the British monarchy and the enthusiasm of the Irish people during this pivotal moment in history.
