Alleyway within Dublin Castle
| Story |
For 700 years, Dublin Castle was the center of Britain’s rule over Ireland. Over the years, the complex grew to include offices, living space and prison cells. This image shows an alleyway within the Castle grounds. When Ernie O’Malley was captured by the British in December 1920, he was imprisoned and tortured in Dublin Castle. Helen’s perspective on this laneway causes even the viewer to feel trapped, as if being funneled towards barred windows and bricked walls with no chance of escape. |
