EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled "Portrait of Miff Mole, New York, N.Y. 1946," was brilliantly captured by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb during the golden age of jazz in America. The image showcases Miff Mole, a charismatic bandleader and jazz musician, in the heart of New York City. Mole, born Irving Milfred Moleski, is seen here in a sharp suit, exuding confidence and coolness as he intently listens to the music that surrounded him during this transformative era. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 1940s, a time when jazz music flourished and fashion trends began to shift. The contrast between the pristine white background and the deep shadows that frame Mole's figure create a striking visual balance, emphasizing his presence and captivating the viewer's attention. This evocative image, part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the lives of the musicians who shaped the jazz scene during this pivotal period in American history. The portrait of Miff Mole serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of jazz music and the artists who brought it to life during the 1940s.
