EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Portrait of Louis Armstrong, Aquarium, New York, N.Y. ca. July 1946," is a stunning testament to the unparalleled charisma and artistry of the legendary jazz musician, Louis Armstrong. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, this image captures a rare moment backstage at the Playhouse at the Aquarium in New York City during the golden age of jazz. Louis Armstrong, affectionately known as "Satchmo," is seen seated in a dressing room, a mirror reflecting his smiling face back at him. The mirror also serves as a metaphor for the many facets of his multifaceted personality. Dressed in a crisp shirt and tie, Armstrong gazes intently into the looking glass, seemingly lost in thought before his upcoming performance. The image exudes an air of quiet concentration and anticipation, as if to suggest the immense energy and passion that he would soon bring to the stage. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage and history of jazz music in America during the 1940s. It also serves as a testament to the enduring influence of Louis Armstrong as a groundbreaking artist and iconic figure in American music. The image is a valuable addition to any collection of jazz history, and a must-have for anyone interested in the history and culture of the United States during this period.
