EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of Ray Anthony, a renowned trumpeter and bandleader of the Jazz Age, in the heart of New York City during the late 1940s. Taken by the esteemed photographer William Paul Gottlieb, this image freezes a moment in time as Anthony, dressed in a sharp suit and smiling confidently, stands before a plain backdrop. The photograph, titled "Portrait of Ray Anthony, New York, N.Y. ca. Aug. 1947," is a testament to the golden age of jazz and the cultural heritage it left behind. The image, which is part of the vast collection of William Paul Gottlieb, showcases the unique blend of fashion and music that defined the era. Anthony's impeccable attire, with its crisp lines and classic design, stands in stark contrast to the monochromatic background, drawing the viewer's attention to the subject's expressive face and the trumpet that rests casually at his side. The portrait also serves as a reminder of the rich history of jazz music in the United States and the influential figures who shaped its landscape. Ray Anthony, born Raymond Antonini, was a versatile musician who played with some of the greatest names in jazz, including Count Basie and Duke Ellington. His contributions to the genre, both as a bandleader and a solo artist, continue to inspire generations of musicians and music lovers. This photograph, with its timeless composition and evocative subject matter, is a treasure of American history and a must-have for any collection of jazz-era art and photography.
