Title
James Joyce with Sylvia Beach at Shakespeare and Company
Description
Sylvia Beach and James Joyce seated at a cluttered desk covered in papers. Beach is seated on the left and wears a light-colored collared blouse with a dark tie and jacket, and is looking toward the right. James Joyce is seated on the right and wears a dark suit with a polka-dot bow tie and a dark eye patch over the right eye, also looking slightly downward and to the left. Behind them is a bookcase filled with books and a wall with several posters, including prominent signage advertising Ulysses and Arnold Bennett, as well as racing odds for horses. A telephone and ink bottles sit on the desk in the foreground.
