Abstract
Joyce’s blindness was at its worst in the early thirties when I undertook to make a drawing of him. He had undergone a dozen operations without anesthetic (for an hour or two after one of them he was practically insane, he told me). I did not know Joyce well at that time and was not very experienced with sitters.
Harper’s Bazaar, April 1949, 128–9, 198.
