EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Portrait of Johnny Hodges, Rex William Stewart, Adele Girard, Harry Carney, Barney Bigard, and Joe Marsala, Turkish Embassy, Washington, D.C. 1930," is a stunning snapshot of a moment in jazz history. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, the image captures the essence of the Golden Age of Jazz, showcasing the camaraderie and diversity of the musicians who defined this era. In the foreground, we see Johnny Hodges, an influential alto saxophonist, with his instrument slung over his shoulder, a knowing smile playing on his lips. To his left, Barney Bigard, an accomplished clarinetist, gazes intently at the camera, while Harry Carney, another virtuoso on the clarinet, leans back, seemingly in conversation with the unseen audience. Adele Girard, a harpist, adds a touch of elegance to the scene, her instrument nestled in her lap. Joe Marsala, a cornet player, completes the group, his serious expression adding depth to the image. The setting of the Turkish Embassy in Washington, D.C., adds an intriguing layer to the photograph. The diverse group of musicians, with their mix of African American, Caucasian, and mixed-race backgrounds, reflects the rich cultural heritage of the jazz scene in America during the 1930s. The use of a film negative enhances the image's timeless quality, transporting us back to an era of innovation, creativity, and unity in the world of jazz.
