The Talking Heads of Belfast<br />

Have you ever seen the Chinaman of Marlborough Street?<br />
Or the cherubs making ropes next to City Hall? Do you<br />
know how many seahorses there are in Belfast? In this<br />
architectural expedition with a difference, Daniel<br />
Jewsbury presents some of the sculpted heads on<br />
Belfast’s historic buildings and listens for the story they<br />
tell us about our city. He’ll talk about the Fitzpatrick<br />
Brothers who were amongst Victorian Belfast’s finest<br />
artists and whose work is still on view all around the city.<br />
Their story tells us about power, money and Belfast’s first<br />
property boom - themes which are still relevant today.
