EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled 'Portrait of Jay Higginbotham, New York, N.Y.(?), 1938,' was created by the renowned American photographer William Paul Gottlieb. The image captures a moment in time during the golden age of jazz, a period of significant cultural importance in the history of American music. Three young African American boys, dressed in casual attire, are gathered around a trombone, their expressions reflecting a sense of camaraderie and shared passion for music. The eldest boy, identified as Jay Higginbotham, confidently holds the instrument, his eyes focused and determined. His companions, with curious and admiring looks, seem poised to learn from him. The photograph, taken in the late 1930s, likely in New York City, is a testament to the rich jazz heritage that thrived in the United States during this era. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of music as a means of bringing people together, transcending boundaries, and inspiring future generations. The photograph, which is part of the Library of Congress' extensive collection, is a beautiful example of William Paul Gottlieb's work. Known for his evocative portraits of jazz musicians, Gottlieb's images have become an essential part of the historical record of this unique and vibrant period in American history. This photograph, in particular, stands out for its warmth, authenticity, and timeless appeal.
