Ireland
regionReal-world: Ireland
The west of Ireland was full of wild rumor and legendry during the period covered by Professor Angell's press cuttings.
The country appears as one cutting in Professor Angell's file, gathered for what it stood beside rather than for itself: the same line of the record carries Ardois-Bonnot's blasphemous Dream Landscape, hung that spring in Paris.
Of the rumor and legendry themselves nothing is set down — neither what was told in the west, nor by whom.

Every fact above traces back to the text.
“The west of Ireland, too, is full of wild rumor and legendry, and a fantastic painter named Ardois-Bonnot hangs a blasphemous Dream Landscape in the Paris spring salon of 1926.”
