Description:
Mr. Bloom
Bloomsday - June 16th - is an annual celebration among Joyce fans throughout the world, from Fort Lauderdale to Melbourne. It is celebrated in at least sixty countries worldwide, but nowhere so imaginatively, of course, as in Dublin. The novel, Ulysses, by James Joyce recounts the hour-by-hour events of one day in Dublin - June 16, 1904 - as an ordinary Dubliner, Leopold Bloom, wends his way through the urban landscape, the odyssey of a modern-day Ulysses. This year celebrates the 100th anniversary. ReJoyce Dublin 2004!
This painting is from James Joyce's caricature of Leopold Bloom, drawn in Myron Nutting's studio in the 1920's. c2004.
