Signed On Behalf Of The Provisional Government

Seán O’Sullivan’s series of charcoal drawings of the seven signatories to the 1916 Proclamation (drawn c. 1949) were used in 1966 for a series of An Post stamps commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the Rising (WP | the stamps can be seen in this Indo pdf at UCD). They are displayed on boards in the GPO for the centenary.
