EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled 'Portrait of Sylvia Syms, Little Casino(?), New York, N.Y. ca. June 1947,' is a stunning photograph by renowned American photographer William Paul Gottlieb. The image transports us back to the 1940s, an era known as the Golden Age of Jazz. Sylvia Syms, an African American jazz singer and vocalist, is the subject of this evocative photograph. She is captured in a moment of intense focus and concentration, her eyes closed as she prepares to deliver a powerful performance. The microphone, positioned in front of her, is a testament to her profession as a singer. Her hair, styled in a sleek and elegant fashion, frames her face and adds to her sophisticated appearance. The photograph was taken at the Little Casino in New York City, New York, a popular venue for jazz music during the 1940s. The setting, with its dim lighting and smoky atmosphere, adds to the mood and ambiance of the image. William Paul Gottlieb, a master of capturing the essence of his subjects, expertly conveys the passion and dedication of Sylvia Syms as she prepares to entertain her audience. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of jazz music and the enduring legacy of the artists who brought it to life during the 20th century.
