Impressions of an Irish Countess
Since the exhibition of her photographs at Birr in 1985, Mary,
Countess of Rosse – the wife of the 3rd Earl – has emerged a person in
her own right. Her cleverly organised groups, together with the
brilliant portraits of older people – some of whom certainly started
their lives in the eighteenth century – show a human and
compassionate eye at work, as well as an inventiveness and mastery of
technique. Looking at these, and seeing the 1860s through her
camera, has made many people wonder about the woman behind the
lens. It has been discovered, largely due to David Davison’s research,
that Mary was indeed a woman of many talents.
