EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the intense focus and raw energy of Humberto López Morales as he plays the drums at the Glen Island Casino in New York, New York, during the summer of 1947. The image, taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, is a testament to the golden age of jazz and the vibrant cultural scene of the 1940s. Born in Puerto Rico, Morales was an influential Afro-Latino drummer who made a significant impact on the jazz world. His mastery of various percussion instruments, including the bongo drums, earned him the nickname "King of the Bongos." This close-up shot showcases Morales' deft hands and the intricate patterns he creates on the drum, transporting us back to an era of lively performances and spirited musical expression. The Glen Island Casino, located on Long Island Sound in New Rochelle, New York, was a popular venue for jazz musicians during the 1940s. The casino's ballroom provided an ideal setting for live music, attracting both local and international artists. This photograph is a precious piece of history, documenting a moment in time when jazz music was at the heart of American culture. William Paul Gottlieb, a pioneering figure in jazz photography, captured countless iconic images of jazz legends during the 1940s. His work, including this portrait of Humberto López Morales, continues to inspire and inform our understanding of the rich history of jazz and its role in shaping American cultural heritage.
