EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the charisma and energy of Cab Calloway, an American legend and pioneering figure in the world of jazz music. Taken at Columbia Studio in New York City during the golden age of jazz in March 1947, the image features Calloway looking up, a moment of pause amidst the excitement and creativity that defined his career. Surrounded by a group of young boys, who appear to be in awe of the musician's presence, Calloway exudes a sense of pride and confidence. Dressed in a sharp suit and hat, the singer, songwriter, and bandleader embodies the sophistication and style of the era. William Paul Gottlieb, a renowned photographer, expertly captured this moment, using his camera to preserve a snapshot of history. The film negative, now a heritage art piece, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when jazz music reigned supreme and the recording studio was a place of magic and innovation. This image is a testament to the enduring legacy of Cab Calloway and the impact he had on the music industry. It also serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to influence and inspire us today.
