EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Portrait of Duke Ellington and William P. Gottlieb, WINX, Washington, D.C. ca. 1940," is a stunning testament to the rich history of jazz music during the 1940s. The image was skillfully captured by Delia Potofsky Gottlieb, an accomplished photographer whose work has left an indelible mark on the annals of American arts and culture. Duke Ellington, the esteemed African American composer, pianist, and bandleader, is seen here in deep conversation with William P. Gottlieb, a renowned jazz journalist and columnist. The two men, both icons in their respective fields, exude an air of camaraderie and mutual respect. Ellington, dressed in a sharp suit and fedora, locks eyes with Gottlieb, who listens intently while holding a microphone, likely in preparation for an interview. The photograph was taken at WINX, a radio station in Washington, D.C., during the golden age of jazz. The setting underscores the importance of radio as a medium for disseminating jazz music and promoting its artists during this time. The image is a poignant reminder of the role that journalism and radio played in documenting and preserving the history of jazz music, as well as the close relationship between artists and the media during this era. The photograph is a valuable addition to the Heritage Art collection, providing a unique glimpse into the lives of two influential figures in American music history. The image's timeless quality and the palpable connection between the two men make it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of jazz, journalism, or American culture.
