I began work on The Four Courts in order to have a record of this historic building. It also gave me insight into the daily comings and goings within the hallowed confines of a unique institution much of which is visually unaltered for several hundred years. I produced nearly 300 drawings and sketches of the many scenes as they unfolded in my excursions to the Four Courts for over a year. Included were scenes of the extensive Law Library, Central Office, the Barrister’s Tea Room, the Cryer’s Desk, the Supreme Court, the Round Hall and the Snug etc.
