EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black-and-white photograph, taken in her Manhattan apartment in 1958, the legendary jazz singer Rosie Dolly poses with her three beloved dogs. Surrounded by the eclectic charm of her home, Rosie exudes an air of timeless elegance and sophistication. Above her head, a portrait of a younger Rosie painted by Jean Gabriel Dumerque in 1928 serves as a striking reminder of her storied past. Born in Paris in the 1900s, Rosie Dolly rose to fame as a dancer and singer during the Roaring Twenties. She graced the stages of the most renowned cabarets and revues, including the Moulin Rouge and the Folies Bergère. Her infectious energy and captivating stage presence made her a favorite among audiences, and her signature blend of jazz and blues resonated with the spirit of the era. As the decades passed, Rosie's career continued to thrive. She brought her unique brand of entertainment to the United States, where she captivated audiences in theaters and nightclubs. Her apartment in Manhattan became her sanctuary, a place where she could retreat from the spotlight and surround herself with the memories of her past and the comfort of her beloved dogs. This photograph captures a moment of quiet reflection in Rosie's life, a testament to her enduring legacy as a jazz icon and a reminder of the indelible mark she left on the world of music and entertainment. The portrait above her head, a snapshot of her vibrant past, serves as a reminder of the many lives she touched and the countless memories she created during her remarkable career.
