EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the essence of Edwin A. Finckel, a renowned composer and pianist of the Golden Age of Jazz, in his Greenwich Village home in New York City during the summer of 1946. The image, taken by the esteemed photographer William Paul Gottlieb, showcases Finckel in a thoughtful and introspective moment, surrounded by the personal items and ambiance of his living space. The photograph is a testament to the cultural significance of the jazz scene in Manhattan during the 1940s, and the enduring influence of this music on American heritage. Finckel's expression and posture convey a deep connection to his craft, as he sits at the piano, likely pondering his next composition. The image is a poignant reminder of the rich artistic legacy of the United States, and the unique role that Greenwich Village played in nurturing and celebrating the country's musical talents." "The photograph, taken as a film negative, has been expertly printed and preserved, allowing us to appreciate the intricacies of Finckel's facial features and the textures of his surroundings. The monochromatic palette adds to the timeless quality of the image, transporting us back to a bygone era. William Paul Gottlieb, a master of his craft, expertly captures the essence of Finckel and the spirit of the jazz age in this powerful and evocative portrait." "Edwin A. Finckel was a pivotal figure in the jazz scene of the 1940s, and this portrait offers a glimpse into the man behind the music. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of jazz history or American cultural heritage, and a testament to the enduring influence of the Golden Age of Jazz on contemporary music and culture.
