EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled "Portrait of Irving Lasch, Metropolitan Vocational High School, New York, N.Y. ca. July 1947," was masterfully captured by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb. The image transports us back to the 1940s in the United States, specifically to a music lesson at Metropolitan Vocational High School in New York City. Irving Lasch, the subject of the photograph, sits confidently in the center, surrounded by a group of young men, all intently focused on their music teacher. The room is filled with an air of anticipation and excitement as Lasch imparts his knowledge and passion for music to his students. The image captures the essence of a pivotal moment in these young men's lives as they embark on their journey to master their craft. Gottlieb, a pioneer in jazz photography, expertly utilized the medium of film negative to create a striking contrast between the light and dark areas of the image, highlighting the intricacies of the scene. The portrait is a testament to the power of education, particularly in the realm of music, and the impact it can have on the lives of young people. The Library of Congress in the United States of America proudly preserves this precious piece of heritage art, a reminder of the rich cultural history of music education in America during the 20th century. The portrait is a visual representation of the dedication and commitment of educators like Irving Lasch, who shaped the lives of countless young musicians, instilling in them a love for music and the skills to pursue their dreams.
