On first seeing a model of this sculpture in 1939, Helen Hooker O'Malley declared that she would commission a full-sized version. She did, but not until the early 1970s. The full-sized plaster version, seen here in Peter Grants's garage/studio, was cast in bronze in 1980. In 1992, it was erected in memory of Ernie O'Malley, on the Mall, Castlebar, near his birthplace.

Exhibited as part of 'A Modern Eye: Helen Hooker O'Malley's Ireland', 20 June-2 November 2019 at the National Photographic Archive
