EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of the Golden Age of Jazz in America during the late 1940s. The image, titled "Portrait of Larry Clinton and Betty George, Copacabana(?), New York, N.Y. ca. Sept. 1947," was brilliantly captured by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb. The photograph showcases Larry Clinton, a talented bandleader and clarinetist, and Betty George, a striking jazz vocalist, as they share a moment of connection at the iconic Copacabana nightclub in New York City. The image exudes an air of charm and romance, with Clinton looking dapper in his suit and tie, and George radiating confidence and allure in her elegant gown. The contrast between the chivalrous gesture of Clinton's hand on George's shoulder and the playful glance she casts his way suggests a proposition or a proposal, adding a layer of intrigue to the scene. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music and the enduring appeal of its performers. The image is a valuable piece of history, capturing a moment in time during the forties that continues to resonate with audiences today. William Paul Gottlieb's masterful use of film negative creates a timeless quality to the image, with the white and black contrast adding depth and texture to the scene. This portrait is a must-have for any collection of jazz-era photography or American cultural heritage art.
