EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled 'Portrait of Rex William Stewart at the Aquarium, New York, N.Y. ca. Aug. 1946,' is a stunning representation of jazz history and African American culture during the 1940s in America. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, this image captures a moment in time as Rex William Stewart and his bandmates engage in a lively performance at an unidentified nightclub or jazz club, likely located in New York City. Stewart, a talented cornetist and bass player, is prominently featured in the image, his intense focus and skill evident as he plays his instrument. His bandmates, also dressed in sharp suits and holding their brass instruments, add to the dynamic energy of the scene. The image is a testament to the golden age of jazz and the rich heritage it represents. The photograph was taken during the forties, a decade known for its vibrant jazz scene and cultural significance. The image is a film negative, adding to its historical value and authenticity.

The Library of Congress holds the original photograph in its extensive collection, preserving it for future generations to appreciate and learn from. This image is a reminder of the important role jazz music played in shaping American culture and the enduring legacy of its pioneers like Rex William Stewart.
