Episode from the Library Speaker Series
Recorded in the RDS Library as part of The Dublin Book Festival 2022, journalist, author, and broadcaster David McCullough interviews historian Michael B. Barry and photographer and colourist John O’Byrne, authors of The Irish Civil War in Colour. Barry and O’Byrne’s book brings one of the most defining events in Irish history to life for the first time in painstakingly hand-coloured photographs, many of which originated in private collections and archives and as such have never been available in the public sphere. McCullough investigates how Barry and O’Byrne conceived the book, with Barry explaining his criteria for selecting and captioning photographs so as to form a cohesive narrative of the conflict, while O’Byrne demonstrates his fascinating method for colourising black and white photographs, which he developed over a period of ten years, as well as arguing against criticisms that his work is a form of, as McCullough puts it, ‘historical vandalism’.
