EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, captured by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb in 1938, showcases an esteemed gathering at the Turkish Embassy in Washington, D.C. The group includes notable figures of the jazz world and Turkish diplomacy. Seated at the dining table, we find Ahmet Ertegun, the future co-founder of Atlantic Records, and his brother Nesuhi Ertegun. Across from them, Adele Girard Marsala, a prominent American socialite and arts patron, engages in conversation with Joe Marsala. Surrounding the table, we find an array of jazz greats: Zutty Singleton, a celebrated jazz drummer; Max Kaminsky, a virtuoso clarinetist; and Benny Morton, a talented pianist. Sadi Coylin, a Turkish diplomat, and Ahmet Ertegun's father, Ahmet M. Ertegun, complete the group. This image is a testament to the rich cultural exchange that took place during the Golden Age of Jazz. The diverse group, brought together by their shared love for music and the diplomatic setting, reflects the cross-section of society that jazz touched during this period. The elegant dining room table, adorned with fine china and silverware, adds an air of sophistication to the scene. William Paul Gottlieb's masterful composition and use of light and shadow create an intimate and engaging portrait that transports us back to a bygone era. This image is a valuable piece of jazz history and a testament to the enduring influence of music on culture and diplomacy.
