A chara, – Is it too ambitious to recommend that a public platform be established, by the Irish Tourist Board or an appropriate body of that ilk, to exhibit some of the magnificent trophies of Dublin’s rococo plasterwork?
In the context of Europe, these important and rewarding details are equal in comparison to the most memorable works on the continent.
There is, I think, a plethora of suitable buildings where a museum could be opened and public accessibility provided.
The cultural agenda of the enlightened visitor or tourist deserves an observation post for this golden age of interior decoration.
In all their ornate finery, these fusions of European art represent a modern parallel to the wonderful illustrated manuscripts of the Dark Ages, and remain a vital and proud part of Ireland’s national culture.
They are a must-see.
