Back caption reads,
"ST. PATRICK'S CATHEDRAL, DUBLIN: Originally
founded in 1190, the Cathedral was extensively rebuilt towards the end
of the 14th century after the destructive fire. Following the wars of the 17th century
the building fell into a ruinous state until about 1860 when a complete restoration
was carried out through the generosity of Sir Benjamin Guinness, a member of the
famous brewery family. The little park beside the Cathedral was also provided by
this family. Jonathan Swift was dean of St. Patrick's from 1713 to 1745."
