This is the skeleton of William Burke, who was hanged on this day in 1829. Along with his partner William Hare, he murdered at least 16 people to sell to anatomists for dissection. In 2022 I carried out conservation work on his remains

#FolkloreSunday Queen Anee's Lace - At the center of the flowerhead, is a tiny cluster of dark red flowers, like someone pricked their finger while working lace. Queen Anne (1702-1714) lost 17 children of her children, and sewed to comfort herself.

#FolkloreThursday Will-O-the-Wisp and Snake by Hermann Hendrich - Romanticism style. The streaks of light, also called “ignis fatuus,” Latin for “foolish fire”. Not sure what the snake adds...but OK....#FolkloreThursday

William Orpen's Rocky Coast of Howth - born in Stillorgan in 1878 - this is a fabulous and moody portrait. He taught painting in Dublin, becoming a famous WWI depicting the war and especially the Somme. #Ireland #Dublin #Howth #Paintings #IrishArt #Artists

@FolkloreThursday - On an art kick lately. "Three Living and Three Dead" 15thC. 3 noblemen suddenly come across 3 corpses, in varying states of decay, but still animated. The dead admonish them to consider the transience of life and to improve their behavior before too late.
