Title Photograph of a man, Pat "Phaddy" Hernon, singing.
Description Photograph of a man, Pat ?Phaddy? Hernon, singing with his back to a cottage hearth, Aran Islands. Phaddy, wearing a dark jumper and grey trousers, stands slightly left of centre. He faces the camera, his hands behind his back. His faces in turned up to the light which is so bright as to cause his features to disappear. Annie Hernon sits in Phaddy's shadow, in the alcove of the hearth behind him. She wears a skirt and dark cardigan and has her hands folded on her lap. An oil lamp hangs, in the left background, by Phaddy's right shoulder.
