An oil on canvas painting of Skelling Night in Cork City; the scene takes place on the corner of Grand Parade and South Mall, with Parliamentary Bridge in the distance. It is late dusk or early night time as there is still a small amount of blue left in the overall dark sky, and a crowd of people carrying torches crowd the street; at the end of Grand Parade, overlooking them, is a statue of a man on a horse.
A pastel on paper drawing of the intersection of Grand Parade and South Mall in Cork City in the late 1800s; carriages, pedestrian, people pulling pack donkeys, and dogs walk the streets of the city centre; in the background, Parliamentary Bridge stretches over the River Lee and there is a statues of a man on a horse at the far end of the street next to the river.
Did you catch the mention of #CrawfordArtGallery in this year’s #HollyBough?
The article Cork’s ‘Yella’ Horse details the history of an ill-fated statue that used to stand on Grand Parade, lost to the ages but immortalised in two works in our collection.
