| 説明 | A graduation portrait of a young woman in full graduation dress of Mortar Board hat and gown, holding a scroll. G. Evelyn Nicholls who is generally considered to have been the love interest of the executed leader of the 1916 Easter Rising, Patrick H. Pearse? Like most of those associated with the fallen leaders the most of their lives were defined by and lived after those executions. No doubt the lovely Miss Nicholls was one of those who lived a long and productive life thereafter? Evelyn drowned on the Great Blasket Island on Friday, 13 August 1909.Photographers: M.
