THE ROYAL IRISH ACADEMY IS IRELAND'S LEADING BODY OF EXPERTS IN THE SCIENCES AND HUMANITIES
1916 Portraits and Lives
In 1966, 15 major stations were named after people who played a significant role in the Easter rising and were subsequently executed. To mark the centenary of the rising, the Royal Irish Academy and the Office of Public Works commissioned the artist David Rooney to create portraits of the men and women involved for the book 1916 Portraits and Lives.
