EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of jazz trumpeter Cootie Williams, taken in New York, New York, during the golden age of jazz in the late 1930s. The image, created by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, beautifully encapsulates the culture and heritage of the jazz scene during this era. With his eyes closed, lost in the music, Williams' intense concentration is palpable as he gracefully plays his trumpet, its gleaming brass body a testament to the rich, soulful sounds that would emanate from it. The photograph, a snapshot of a moment in time, transports us back to the jazz age, inviting us to immerse ourselves in the history and legacy of this iconic figure and the music he helped create. This powerful image, a treasure of 20th century American arts, continues to inspire and captivate audiences, reminding us of the enduring power of jazz and the artists who brought it to life.
