EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Portrait of Charlie Barnet and Re-Bop," was taken by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb in New York City, New York, circa August 1946. The image features Charlie Barnet, a celebrated jazz saxophonist of the 1940s, in an unusual setting with an unexpected companion. Barnet is seen playing his saxophone with a sense of focus and intensity, while a curious monkey named Re-Bop sits on his shoulder, peering intently at the instrument. The photograph captures the essence of the Golden Age of Jazz, a time when music was a vibrant and dynamic expression of American culture. The contrast between the human musician and his primate friend highlights the unity and diversity of the jazz community, as well as the playful and unconventional spirit of the era. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of jazz music and the unique characters who shaped its history." "The image, captured on film negative, is a stunning example of William Paul Gottlieb's masterful ability to capture the essence of his subjects. The photograph is rich in detail, with the textures of Barnet's suit and the monkey's fur coming to life against the stark background. The use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the image, creating a sense of intimacy and connection between the viewer and the subjects. This photograph is not only a valuable historical artifact but also a work of art in its own right, showcasing the beauty and complexity of the jazz world during the 1940s." "The photograph is a reminder of the unique and unusual moments that defined the jazz age, and the enduring influence of jazz music on American culture. It is a testament to the creativity, innovation, and spirit of the musicians of the era, and a reminder of the importance of preserving our cultural heritage for future generations.
