RMRJAEC8–Illustration of Joseph Boruwalski and giant Patrick Cotter O'Brien 1805. Patrick O’Brien (1760-1806), born Patrick Cotter in Kinsale, Ireland in 1760, grew to the height of over eight foot and became known as the Irish Giant and the Bristol Giant. The dwarf Joseph Boruwalski (1739-1837) was born in Poland in 1739, adopted by a local official when he was nine and was later acquired by Countess Humiecka. When he was fifteen she took him to Vienna, and in 1760 to Paris where he started his career as a curiosity. He was presented to the future King George IV.
