EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the essence of jazz trumpeter Oran "Hot Lips" Page as he looks up from his brass instrument in deep concentration during a performance at the legendary Apollo Theatre in Harlem, Manhattan, New York City, New York State, USA, circa October 1946. The image, created by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, transports us back to the golden age of jazz and the vibrant cultural scene of the 1940s. The Apollo Theatre, a historic music hall that has played a pivotal role in the careers of many African American performers, serves as the perfect backdrop for this powerful and expressive portrait. With his trumpet raised to his lips, Page's intense gaze and focused expression convey the raw emotion and energy that defined the jazz music of the era. This image is a testament to the enduring legacy of jazz music and the artists who brought it to life during the 20th century. The Library of Congress, a rich repository of American heritage and culture, holds this precious photograph in its collection as a reminder of the indelible mark that jazz has left on the annals of American history.
