EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled 'Portrait of Lee Sherman, Radio City Music Hall, New York, N.Y. ca. June 1947,' was masterfully captured by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb. The image transports us back to the golden age of jazz and the 1940s in America. The scene unfolds in a dance studio, where a group of dancers, including the striking figure of Lee Sherman, are gathered. Sherman, with an arm raised and a hand gesturing, exudes confidence and charisma, while the other dancers adopt various poses, some with legs apart and arms up, showcasing their agility and grace. The image is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the era, with its monochrome palette and film-negative texture adding to the nostalgic feel. The setting, Radio City Music Hall in New York City, was a iconic venue for live entertainment during this time, and the image captures the essence of the vibrant and dynamic world of show business. Lee Sherman, a choreographer and performer, is at the forefront of this group portrait. His strong posture and confident gaze convey a sense of leadership and authority, while his raised arm and hand gesture add a sense of direction and instruction. The other dancers in the image, both male and female, mirror his energy and focus, creating a sense of unity and cohesion. This portrait is a beautiful reminder of the legacy of jazz dance and the influential figures who shaped its history. William Paul Gottlieb's keen eye and skillful composition have captured a moment in time that continues to inspire and captivate audiences today.
