Hi Mary, I was interested to see your picture of the St Patrick statue. I in an online site we are discussing the colours that were worn by St Patrick. The debate has been whether his colours were green or blue or indeed blue and then green? Your picture shows both colours. Have you any idea as to when the statue was made?
One thought is that maybe the sources of these colours may been the reason for this, you have shown great pictures showing illuminations in Ireland maybe the experts in this may have some clues?
The idea seems to be that blue came before green in the pictures of St Patrick. Have you any idea with your contacts to know this is the case?
Many thanks,
Ken
