Description   Broadcaster Joe Duffy looks at the sculpture 'They are of us all' by artist Barbara Knezevic, dedicated to the children who died during the 1916 Easter Rising, during an RTÉ Guide photo shoot in the eastern courtyard of the GPO Witness History visitors' centre on O'Connell Street, Dublin, on 1 March 2016. The Spire of Dublin can be seen in the background. Stills from this shoot accompanied a Guide cover interview with Duffy, published in the issue of 19-25 March 2016.

Joe Duffy had just written a book, 'Children of the Rising', about the children who died during the 1916 Easter Rising. A documentary based on this book, 'Children of the Revolution', made by Strike Films, was broadcast on RTÉ Television on Easter Sunday 27 March 2016. 'Liveline', the RTÉ Radio 1 live phone-in show Duffy presented, was broadcast live from O'Connell Street on Easter Monday 2016.
