EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the jazz scene in New York City during the 1940s. Taken at the Three Deuces jazz club on Manhattan's 52nd Street, the image features four legendary figures of the jazz world: Charlie Parker (alto saxophone), Tommy Potter (double bass), Miles Davis (trumpet), and Max Roach (drums). The title "Three Deuces" refers to the address of the club, which was a popular destination for jazz enthusiasts and musicians alike. The photograph, taken by renowned jazz photographer William Paul Gottlieb, captures the group in casual attire, reflecting the laid-back atmosphere of the jazz clubs of the era. Parker's intense focus on his saxophone, Davis' confident gaze, Potter's relaxed posture, and Roach's thoughtful expression all convey the deep concentration and creativity that defined the jazz musicians of the time. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music in America and the golden age of jazz that flourished in the 1940s. The photograph's timeless quality and the iconic status of its subjects have made it an enduring symbol of jazz history and a must-have for any jazz or photography collection.
