EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of traditional butchery in Dublin, Ireland during the 1990s. The image showcases two butchers, dressed in white aprons and wearing protective gloves, skillfully carrying lamb carcasses on their broad shoulders as they make their way down a bustling market street. The thick, heavy ropes slung over their forearms add an extra layer of authenticity to the scene. The butchers' determined expressions and focused body language convey their dedication to their craft, as they expertly navigate the crowded streets, balancing the weight of their precious cargo. The lamb carcasses, with their pink, plump flesh and glistening with moisture, are a testament to the quality of the meat being sold. The atmosphere is lively and vibrant, with the sounds of chatter and laughter drifting through the air, mingling with the rich aroma of fresh meat. The scene is quintessentially Irish, transporting us back to a time when shopping for food was a communal experience, and the butcher was a trusted and respected figure in the community.
