Description
In Sylvia Beach's handwriting on recto "Nora Joyce Mrs Sullivan John Sullivan Joyce at the Joyces' flat." stamp for Daily Sketch on verso
Nora Barnacle Joyce, Mrs. Sullivan, John Sullivan [O'Sullivan], and James Joyce gathered around an upright Gaveau piano. Mrs. Sullivan is seated at the piano bench with hands on the keys, turned to look at the camera. James Joyce stands behind Mrs. Sullivan, dressed in a light-colored jacket with a crest, bow tie, and round glasses. Nora Barnacle Joyce sits beside the piano, and John Sullivan leans with an arm resting on the piano, dressed in a dark suit. Sheet music is propped up on the piano, and framed portraits hang on the wall behind them. A handwritten note in Sylvia Beach's handwriting identifies the individuals as Nora Joyce, Miss Sullivan, John Sullivan [O'Sullivan], and Joyce at the Joyce’s flat.
