This probably is a copy of an original preserved in this collection as 2122 TX (91). That original is unsigned and,although its scale of feet is given in Italian (the language of Angelo Maria Bigari, the travelling companion of Gabriel Beranger on his tour of Connacht is 1779), the attribution of the original makes Beranger the more likely candidate as the draftsman of the original. (www.nli.ie) See image cgjc1184, for an image of the Abbey of Dunmore created by Bigari. This copy was drawn by Jonathon Sisson Cooper, a nephew of Austin Cooper.Role:
