Harp player, Duke Street off Grafton Street. Dublin 1963. Published in Quinn, Edward. James Joyces Dublin. Secker & Warburg, London 1974.
On Duke Street, off Grafton Street in Dublin, a woman in a tweed suit plays an ornate Celtic harp on the sidewalk in 1963. An open case for tips rests at the instrument’s base as two men—one in a chauffeur’s cap, the other pushing a hand truck—walk past in the street. The scene is framed by the façades of businesses, including Tobin’s Bar, Charles Healy Watchmaker, and the Maison Leon hair salon, capturing a moment of daily city life.
