Légende

Grand Banquet to the Knights of St. Patrick, in Dublin Castle, 1857. 'A grand Chapter of the Most Illustrious Order of St. Patrick was held...in the Presence Chamber...for the investure of the Earl of Granard and Viscount Gough, as Knights of the Order...The ceremony, which commenced at three o'clock, was brief, but of an impressive character, and was in every particular conducted under the direction of Sir Bernard Burke, the Ulster King of Arms, in strict accordance with the statutes and precedents...The entire hall has been recently painted and ornamented, and the effect produced by the soft white colour which prevails, and which is relieved by the rich gilding of the pillars, pilasters and cornices, and stucco work, is most striking...The magnificent banquet in the evening...was attended by little short of a hundred of the nobility and gentry'. From "Illustrated London News", 1857.
