From the Sexton Collection
John Gregory Crace (1809 - 1889). Irish tenant farmers in the Duke of Devonshire's photographic studio, Lismore Castle, Co. Waterford, c.1853. Two women and two men of the impoverished classes in the studio at Lismore by Crace c.1853. One man appears to have his hand on a sledgehammer. This is the nearest image this collector has got to the Famine in the last 35 years of searching.
