The cab rank at Beresford place. Dublin 1963. Published in Quinn, Edward. James Joyces Dublin. Secker & Warburg, London 1974.

At the cab rank on Beresford Place, Dublin, in 1963, a large, spoked carriage wheel dominates the foreground. Shot from a low angle, its spokes frame a view of other carriages in the unpaved yard. In the background, a horse wearing a feedbag is harnessed to its cab, while a man in a suit and fedora checks his watch. The scene unfolds under a bright, overcast sky where mid-20th-century cars are parked near a building with a partial sign for a bakery, sharing the space with the older horse-drawn vehicles.
