Title Photograph of a couple set dancing, in a cottage on Inishmore.
Description Photograph of a couple set dancing while others look on, in a cottage on Inishmore, Aran Islands. The couple spin around with her arms around his waist and his hands holding her arms. Set into the wall behind the dancing couple is a large open fireplace. Two women sit on the right, by the fireplace. A man sits on the other side. An oil lamp hangs on the left of the hearth, in the centre background. In the left foreground, nearer the camera, is a man, his face in shadow. His left hand is clasped in someone else's. Behind him stands another man who looks toward the first couple.
