EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled 'Portrait of Buddy Rich' by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, was captured in the heart of New York City, New York, around August 1946. The image showcases the legendary jazz drummer, Buddy Rich, in a casual yet intriguing setting. Rich, dressed in a leopard print dressing gown, sits confidently with a cheeky grin, seemingly mid-meal. The playful animal print robe adds an unexpected element to the formal attire often associated with musicians of the era. The image is a testament to the golden age of jazz in America during the 1940s. The forties marked a significant period in the history of jazz, with artists pushing boundaries and redefining the genre. This portrait encapsulates the essence of the era's culture and the disrespect for conventional norms. William Paul Gottlieb, a master of his craft, expertly captures the raw energy and charisma of Buddy Rich. The photograph, taken as a film negative, has been preserved and is now part of our cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder of the rich history of jazz music and the unique personalities that shaped it during the 20th century. The portrait invites viewers to ponder the life of this iconic figure, his profession as a jazz drummer, and the fashion trends of the time. The image continues to inspire and intrigue, making it a valuable addition to any collection of jazz history or photography.
