EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of jazz legend Dizzy Gillespie, taken in New York City, New York, around May 1947. The image, created by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, showcases Dizzy in his prime during the golden age of jazz. Dizzy's direct gaze and confident posture exude a sense of charisma and coolness, while his trademark beret and sunglasses add to his distinctive style. The photograph captures Dizzy in the midst of holding his trumpet, a brass instrument that was an extension of his being and the source of his extraordinary musical talents. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music and the fashion trends of the 1940s. The man, dressed in a smart suit and tie, wears a thoughtful expression, as if lost in the music that he created and loved. This photograph is a precious addition to the Library of Congress' extensive collection, a reminder of the legacy of jazz greats like Dizzy Gillespie and the impact they had on American culture. The image, shot on film negative, is a timeless piece of art that continues to inspire and entertain, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of jazz music and the people who brought it to life.
