EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures Ann Hathaway, a jazz singer of the 1940s golden age, in a moment of quiet reflection at Washington Square in New York City. The photograph, taken by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb in May 1947, showcases Hathaway standing before the iconic Washington Arch, her hands clasped in front of her, as she gazes off into the distance. The architectural feature of the archway serves as a triumphal backdrop, symbolizing the triumph of the human spirit and the enduring legacy of jazz music. The image captures the essence of the jazz era, a time of cultural innovation and artistic expression, and the resilience of the people who lived through it. The monochromatic palette of the photograph adds to the timeless quality of the image, transporting us back to a bygone era. Ann Hathaway's posture and expression convey a sense of determination and hope, as if she is on the cusp of a new beginning or a significant career milestone. This portrait is a testament to the power of music and the human spirit, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire us today.
