Description:"This photograph sat on the corner of my desk and has lifted my spirits for 18 months, every time I have glanced up. Its appeal for me is three-fold:
* Uplifting - It reminds me of a very happy day, when otherwise responsible people don funny
costumes and celebrate their Irish heritage in their own way, in their home city.
* Reminiscence - The tractor is similar to my uncle’s tractor, which as a ten year old in rural
Ireland I was able to steer across the fields, under his close but relaxed supervision.
* Professional – this print reminds me of the importance of reaching out to all communities and
ensuring that their individual and collective voices are represented in the archive."
