dc.description'This drawing is a view of the 13th century Augustian priory of Tristernagh, County Westmeath, Ireland, as seen from the south-east. This building was demolished in 1783. To the far right a group of people dance around a person standing on a dais at the foot of what is probably a flagpole. An engraving based on this drawing to be found in Volume II of Francis Groses's "Antiquities of Ireland" (London 1791 but not published till 1796) as Plate 107. Angelo Bigari (fl. 1772-1779) was accompanied by Gabriel Beranger (ca. 1730-1817) who wrote of the trip in his notes (see National Library of Ireland Ms 4162, pages 29-30).'
