The Ormond Hotel on Upper Ormond Quay, Dublin, 1963. Famously featured in the "Sirens" chapter of James Joyce's *Ulysses*, the hotel's facade rises above the Irish Sewing Cotton Co. Ltd. on the ground floor. The street is active with traffic, including a prominent Volkswagen Beetle, a parked MG A roadster, and delivery trucks for Carling Lager and Savage Smyth Ltd. Next door, a brick building advertises "Sunshine" and "Bed & Breakfast," its shopfront marked by a large sign for Wills's Gold Flake cigarettes.
