The Geneva Window, the exquisite but ill-fated final masterpiece by Ireland’s “strangest genius” Harry Clarke. I tell its emotional story in my novel. 2nd pic is the Nelly the dancer from Liam O’Flaherty’s ‘Mr Gilhooley’, made for the Geneva Window. It’s in the Hugh Lane Gallery.

Terrible news about the untimely death of Seán Rocks - I can hardly believe it... grateful to get to pay tribute to him for @thejournal.ie: www.thejournal.ie/tribute-to-s...
In tribute: Seán Rocks showed us with warmth and wit that the Irish arts matter
A contributor to RTÉ Arena, journalist Aoife Barry writes about the legacy Seán Rocks leaves behind him – for artists, journalists and audiences.

'There is a saying that you should ‘give someone their flowers’ before it is too late. I hope that Seán Rocks knew to some degree how respected he was, and how much his work on Arena has mattered to art-makers, journalists and art-lovers.' ❤️
It's important to tell people now what they mean to you✨️

'People who speak about the olden days with fondness often joke about the ice on the inside of the windows...'

This is a great piece by Kit. There is no nostalgia in childhood poverty and never will be, not least because it is not in the past (where it belongs).

Am reading this now. And it reminds me of Tales of the City with its community, life in a new place, good-heartedness, family connections and secrets.

It’s lovely, @cauverymadhavan.bsky.social The Inheritance - the inheritee being Marlo, a quaint house on Ireland’s Beara peninsula. Starting alone he acquires a crow, a blind cow, befriends the numerous locals. There’s history and History and warmth and tears. A book to cuddle up and read.

For all #speirgorm. Here's a worthy follow for a new accpunt. Aoife from Galtee Honey, whose family were instrumental in reviving the native Irish honey bee from near extinction.
