We’re wrapping up our #CorkHarbour theme for June with two final works from the collection. Both showcase the historical importance of the harbour to Cork, when approaching the city by water was much more commonplace than today.

#CrawfordArtGallery #IrishArt
An oil on canvas painting of Cork City at sunset as a newly arrived paddle steamer makes its way upriver to the Port of Cork. Dozens of masts break the skyline on both channels of the river, emphasising the importance of the harbour to the city’s commerce, prosperity, and identity. The steeples of Shandon and St Patrick’s Church (right) and old St Fin Barre’s Cathedral and city hall (left) can be readily identified. The fine offices of the St George Steam Packet Company can also be glimpsed between moored vessels at Penrose Quay. An oil on canvas painting of the mouth of Cork harbour, showing a flotilla of steamships racing towards the ocean as the hills of Cork slope gently in the background.

Today, we’re continuing our celebration of Cork Harbour by looking at some of the familiar landmarks that have watched over the harbour for centuries - Blackrock Castle, Great Island, and Haulbowline. 🌊 🏰

#CrawfordArtGallery #CorkWeek2026 #CorkHarbour
A watercolour painting of Blackrock Castle showing a scene set in 1724, with people along the shore and on the grounds of the castle, some watching while others rush to greet a large, three-masted ship and smaller rowboats that are returning to the shore. A watercolour painting of Great Island in Cork Harbour, depicting a calm and peaceful day with only a few boats and ships dotting the water. In the foreground, cows graze in a pasture. A watercolour of Haulbowline in 1900, showing both sailing ships and steamer ships, as well as smaller rowboats, traversing the water while seagulls fly through the clear sky.

Fianna Fáil Councillor Audrey Buckley and other Councillors expressed concern the local authority still did not know if it would be asked for its views, especially as there is just two-and-a-half weeks to the submissions deadline.

There’s enough misery in the world, without my tuppence worth.

So I’m going to start posting daily photos of the beautiful Cork harbour.

The second largest natural harbour in the world.

A bright orange ship, delivering gas, is moored to a jetty. In front, against a cold grey river, a scarlet navigation buoy. Behind, a leaden sky, punctuated by a searing rainbow that seems to emerge from a castle on the bottom right. A real photo, not AI
