Title A name given to the resource The Irish Examiner Collection Subject The topic of the resource Irish Travellers Nomadic populations Ireland — Social life and customs Ireland — History — 20th century Caravans — Ireland Family life — Ireland Social history — Ireland Description An account of the resource This collection consists of a series of historical photographs documenting the lives of Irish Travellers, originally published by the Irish Examiner. These images provide a unique and intimate glimpse into the culture, lifestyle, and challenges faced by Irish Travellers, a traditionally nomadic ethnic group in Ireland. Captured across several decades, the photographs highlight a variety of subjects, including family life, life on the road, evictions, and interactions with broader Irish society. The collection, generously made available by the Irish Examiner, offers a significant visual record of the Traveller community, showing both the resilience and the changing dynamics of a group whose way of life has often been marginalised or misunderstood. Access and Use: This collection has been digitised and is now available for online access. It has been made accessible with the kind permission of the Irish Examiner. The images are provided for educational, research, and non-commercial use, and users are encouraged to explore the collection to gain insights into the culture and history of Irish Travellers. For any commercial use or inquiries regarding reproduction rights, please contact the <a href="https://www.irishexaminer.com/contact-us/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Irish Examiner directly.</a> Acknowledgements: We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Irish Examiner for granting access to their photographic archive and making this invaluable collection available to a wider audience. Their support plays a crucial role in preserving and sharing the visual history of Irish Travellers with future generations.
