1913 Colored Pictures of Ireland

These images, which represent the first ever colour
photographs taken in Ireland, were taken in 1913 by two
French women, Marguerite Mespoulet and Madeleine
Mignon-Alba, who used newly available autochrome colour
plates.

Ireland until relatively recently was populated with an island full of survivalists. Hard and tough people with hearts of gold and a sense of humour that never gets old.

[@karenkane241]

@I HATE TOUCANS ummmmm so I'm irish and 4.904 million seems like a lot to me and if you don't believe me look up the population is and what my name (aisling)means

[@SnakeFist150]

@I HATE TOUCANS We dont need more people in Ireland. I like having a small population. The UK is just one big parking lot, we dont want that here.

[@harrisonboone2248]

@I HATE TOUCANS WOW !!!! What a bold statement and so very wrong. Ireland is a small island and is overpopulated in my opinion and overpopulated Ireland has lost her charm because of this very fact. Tourists used to flock to Ireland to meet the famous Irish story tellers, musicians, matchmakers, joke tellers and rogues. Now it is like all the other countries in the world, a bland, boring mix of everyone from everywhere with no specific identity. As for Ireland's presence on the "European Stage" !!!! Ireland currently has 13 members in the European Parliament, the executive director of the World Health Organization (WHO) is Dr. Michael Ryan from Sligo,Ireland, the Irish police (An Garda Siochana) and ex members play a bigger role in Interpol (Europe's FBI) than any other European nation etc. etc. etc. You are so misinformed. Ireland as always is punching way above her weight and has a big presence the world over not just the EU.

The spun yarn/fiber could be used for either either knitting or weaving. (Although knitting would be a more likely craft in a poorer croft.)

Thanks for these pictures of Ireland. They were taken within weeks of when my grandfather emigrated as a teen, never to see the land or his parents again. The cloaks the women are wearing are very similar to the Munster cloaks worn all over the rural southern counties by women, and which can stiil be found by diligent search. My grandmother was also a young teenager in Cork, south and east of where these photos were taken, at the time. Kahn must have been very prescient to have undertaken this photo project on the eve of The Great War WWI, which began the vast destruction and transformations of the dark and bloody 20th century. The picture of the Anglo-Irish landlord's masion, which has an ominous photo fault on the left resembling smoke and fire, might have been one of the ones blown up, burned or abandoned by the English during and after the Irish War of Independence, which began in earnest less than six years after these photographs. It's very interesting to see the world my people were forced to flee by religious, political and economic oppression. Thanks for revealing the "white privilege" of my people, as the contemporary government of Ireland refers to it, through their recent immigrant spokespeople.

[@irishrepublican3739]

White privilege doesn’t mean white people dont have struggles, it means their skin colour isn’t the cause of struggle i.e racism/ police brutality “White privilege, or white skin privilege, is the societal privilege that benefits white people over non-white people in some societies, particularly if they are otherwise under the same social, political, or economic circumstances. With roots in European colonialism and imperialism, and the Atlantic slave trade, white privilege has developed in circumstances that have broadly sought to protect white racial privileges, various national citizenships and other rights or special benefits”

[@irishrepublican3739]

blackswan20 where are you from?

[@irishrepublican3739]

blackswan20 just wondering if you’re Irish or American or something

[@irishrepublican3739]

blackswan20 no. I do think reparations by the British are in order i.e funding Gaeltachts, Irish heritage centers, Irish language/ culture centers though. White privilege is a big problem in the states from what I gather. OP seems to think that because our people have had tremendous struggles that white privilege is a myth. It’s not.

[@irishrepublican3739]

blackswan20 don’t have kids or grandkids considering my age. Don’t have a victim mentality. Don’t expect reparations from a kid on a northern council estate nor a pensioner rather, the government. It’s not a victim mentality to want what was once destroyed to be rebuilt. We go to school for years, learn Irish and all for what? Not being able to use it or remember it? White privilege means white people don’t need to worry about being killed every time the cops pull them over, or being racially profiled as a threat, or a thief, or violent. I don’t want anyone to provide for me, I don’t know where you got that from, I provide for myself. All I said was the British government could fund Gaelic heritage centres, Irish language centres ect. An apology for Bloody Sunday after a 12 year inquiry isn’t enough. “Victim mentality” my bollocks. Good luck to ya
