EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled "Portrait of Billy Strayhorn, New York, N.Y. ca. June 1947," was created by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb during the golden age of jazz in the United States. The image features three men in deep discussion, with Billy Strayhorn, the acclaimed African American composer and lyricist, taking center stage. Strayhorn, known for his distinctive fedora and necktie, is seen holding a stack of papers, possibly lyrics or sheet music, as he engages in a lively conversation with two other men. The portrait, which was taken in New York City, New York, during the 1940s, captures the essence of the jazz era and the intellectual energy that surrounded the creative minds of the time. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States and the enduring influence of jazz music on American arts and society. This photograph, with its timeless composition and intriguing subject matter, continues to captivate audiences and inspire new generations of artists and musicians.
