ARTICLES RELATED TO Irish Houses of Parliament - Pearce's design copied in the US Capitol and British Museum | | | |  Irish Houses of Parliament - Pearce's design copied in the US Capitol and British Museum: Encyclopedia II - Irish Houses of Parliament - Pearce's design copied in the US Capitol and British MuseumPearce's revolutionary designs came to be studied and copied both at home and abroad. The Viceregal Apartments in Dublin Castle copied his top-lit corridors, through with minor alterations that undermined the effect somewhat. The British Museum in London copied his colonnaded House of Commons entrance for its own facade. The impact of his designs stretched as far as Washington, DC where Pearce's building, and in particular his octagonal House of Commons chamber, was studied as plans were made for the new United States's new Capitol building. ...

| | | | Irish Houses of Parliament - Pearce's design copied in the US Capitol and British Museum: Encyclopedia II - Irish Houses of Parliament - Design of the new building Pearce's design for the new Irish Houses of Parliament was revolutionary. The building was effectively semi-circular in shape, occupying nearly an acre and a half (6,000 m²) of ground. Unlike Chichester House, which was set far back from Hoggen Green, the new building was to open up directly onto the Green, as the above photograph shows. The principal entrance consisted of a colonnade of Ionic columns extending around three sides of the entrance quadrangle, forming a letter 'E' (see picture at the bottom of the page). Three stat ...

| | | | Irish Houses of Parliament - Pearce's design copied in the US Capitol and British Museum: Encyclopedia II - Irish Houses of Parliament - The Dáil choses a different home For whatever reason however the 'Bank of Ireland' as it was generally called, remained untouched. When in 1919, Irish republican MPs elected in the 1918 general election assembled to form the First Dáil and issue a Unilateral Declaration of Independence, they chose not to seek to use the old Irish parliament house but instead the Round Room of the Mansion House, the residence of the Lord Mayor of Dublin. (Ironically the Round Room had more royal connections than the Houses of Parliament; it had been built for the visit of King George IV in ...

| | | | Irish Houses of Parliament - Pearce's design copied in the US Capitol and British Museum: Encyclopedia II - Irish Houses of Parliament - The continuing symbolism of the Old Irish Houses of Parliament From the 1830s under Daniel O'Connell, generations of leaders campaigned for the creation of a new Irish parliament, convinced that the Act of Union had been a great mistake. While O'Connell campaigned for full scale Repeal of the Act, leaders like Isaac Butt and Charles Stewart Parnell sought a more modest form of Home Rule within the United Kingdom, rather than the full recreation of an independent Irish state. However even if the proposal got through the British House of Commons (and the first two attempts, in 1886 and 1893 ...

| | | | Irish Houses of Parliament - Pearce's design copied in the US Capitol and British Museum: Encyclopedia II - Irish Houses of Parliament - Public ceremonial in the Irish Houses of Parliament Much of the public ceremonial in the Irish Houses of Parliament mirrored that of the British House of Parliament. Sessions were formally opened by a Speech from the Throne by the Lord Lieutenant, whom it was written "used to sit, surrounded by more splendour than His Majesty on the throne of England"2. His Majesty's representative, when he sat on the throne, sat beneath a canopy of crimson velvet. The House of Lords was presided over, as in the English and British parliaments, by the Lord Chancellor, who sat on the woolsack, a lar ...

| | | | Irish Houses of Parliament - Pearce's design copied in the US Capitol and British Museum: Encyclopedia II - Irish Houses of Parliament - Plans for the new building The house was in a dilapidated state, allegedly haunted and unfit for parliamentary use. In 1727 parliament voted to spend £6,000 on the building of a new parliament building on the site. It was to be the first purpose-built two-chamber parliament building in the world. The then ancient Palace of Westminster, the seat of the English (before 1707) and the British parliament, was merely a converted building; the House of Commons's odd seating arrangements was due to the chamber's previous existence as a chapel. Hence MPs faced each other from ...
