EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled 'Portrait of Deryk Sampson, New York, N.Y. ca. Aug. 1947,' is a stunning representation of the golden age of jazz in America. Created by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, this image transports us back to the 1940s, a time of cultural richness and innovation. Deryk Sampson, a talented jazz singer and pianist, is the focus of this evocative photograph. He is shown in the midst of a performance, lost in the music, with an expression of intense concentration on his face. The background is filled with the hustle and bustle of New York City, with onlookers engrossed in the music, adding to the lively atmosphere. Sampson's impeccable attire, a crisp suit and tie, contrasts sharply with the informal setting, highlighting the dichotomy between the formal and the raw, the polished and the raw, that characterized the jazz scene of the time. The piano, with its worn keys and faded finish, is a testament to the countless hours of practice and performance that went into creating the music that brought people together. This image is a snapshot of a bygone era, a time when jazz was a way of life, a shared experience that brought people of all races and backgrounds together. It is a reminder of the power of music to transcend boundaries and unite us in our shared love of the arts. William Paul Gottlieb's masterful photography captures the essence of this moment in time, making it a valuable addition to any collection of American heritage art.
