Have you seen this woman?

18 November, 2011
Posted in: Dublin, Ireland

A couple of months ago, I started to notice this woman in house and flat windows.

Now, I see her everywhere.

Does somebody sell these statuettes to very willing buyers?

Does the city council – the main landlord locally – buy them in bulk and put them in the houses it rents out? Your thoughts on this mildly vexing question would be welcome.

    How incredibly odd. I haven’t noticed her, but from your pictures she seems to be amazingly ubiquitous. I’ll start watching out. (Possibly she hasn’t made it out as far as Artane/Raheny).

    Please report back on your observations. Am very curious. Have tossed her into google images to no avail and tried variations on city council flat furnishings but have turned up nothing.

    Evidently, you’re not the only one wondering about them:

    Heather, you are a genius! Thank you so much for finding this. As my husband says, a whole new mystery now opens up though. We were wondering who, now we’re wondering why…
