EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the electrifying energy and charisma of jazz legend Dizzy Gillespie during the Golden Age of Jazz in New York City. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb in August 1947, the image was published in Downbeat magazine. Gillespie, dressed in a sharp suit and holding his trademark trumpet at an angle, exudes confidence and coolness. The background is filled with curious onlookers, adding to the lively atmosphere of the 52nd Street jazz scene. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of African American music and the vibrant nightlife of Manhattan Island during the 1940s. The image, which was captured on film negative, is a valuable addition to the Library of Congress's extensive collection of jazz history. The portrait of Dizzy Gillespie is a powerful reminder of the enduring influence of jazz music on American culture and the pivotal role it played in shaping the country's musical landscape during the mid-20th century.
