Online Exhibition | Dubliners: The Photographs of JJ Clarke
People at the junction of Nassau Street, Grafton Street and Suffolk Street, Dublin, c. 1904 (CLAR26)
Online
The photographs of JJ Clarke provide a glimpse of James Joyce’s Dublin.
Clarke, a medical doctor from Co. Monaghan, took the images while he was a student in Dublin between 1897 and 1904. His approach is remarkable as an early example of a modern photojournalistic style, focused on the people of Dublin rather than the city’s architecture.
This exhibition reveals his vivid record of Dubliners at the turn of the twentieth century.
