In 1922 and 1923, Ireland was once more a battlefield, as the Civil War saw conflict break out all over the country. In this interactive series, photographer David Cleary returns to locations captured on film a century ago and takes new photographs showing how those settings have changed - or not.
This photo from the RTÉ Photographic Archive shows the the funeral procession of Republican leader and former Minister for Defence Cathal Brugha at Glasnevin Cemetery, Dublin, on 10 July 1922. Politician Seán T O'Kelly is the nearest pallbearer to the camera. Members of Cumann na mBan are also present. The grave is situated in the republican plot close to the O'Connell Tower in the cemetery and the photograph shows the procession moving along the circular path which leads around the tower. Several of the grave markers are unchanged, including the distinctive celtic cross on the right.
