EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of jazz bassist Slam Stewart as he performs at the Three Deuces jazz club in New York City during the 1940s. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, this image is a testament to the golden age of jazz and the rich cultural heritage it represents. The unusual angle of the photograph, taken from above, offers a unique perspective of Stewart as he skillfully plucks the strings of his double bass, his intense focus and concentration evident on his face. The dimly lit, smoky atmosphere of the nightclub adds to the authenticity of the scene, transporting us back in time to an era of raw, unfiltered musical expression. With his signature three deuces insignia proudly displayed on the bass, Stewart exudes confidence and charisma, embodying the spirit of the jazz musician as an artist and an entertainer. This photograph is a precious reminder of the legacy of African American jazz musicians and their invaluable contributions to American music history.
