Attended the @openhousedublin Sunday tour of the @chester_beatty_dublin, in the grounds of @dublincastle. The site was built in 1756, remodeled in the early 19th century, fell into disrepair and restored again in the 90s (notice the diagonal scar above the window to the left). The reflection in the window is from the glazed concourse roof (that opens and closes weather permitting) providing a covered link of the restored Clock Tower Building and the exhibition spaces with café seating underneath. Through the window you can see part of the banister of the restored spiral staircase, once dilapidated with dry rot but now very impressive indeed 🏺 #openhousedublin #chesterbeatty #giftofalifetime #jewellerybox #totallydublin #irisharchitecturefoundation #instahouse #iphone6s #dublinisdeadly #7deadlythings (at Chester Beatty) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo_ji5mn8Hk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5h3u42yg79by
