EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Pearl Bailey, an iconic American singer and actress. Taken by renowned photographer Carl Van Vechten in 1946 during her performance in the musical "St. Louis Woman" this image showcases Bailey's undeniable talent and charisma. Dressed in a stunning costume that perfectly embodies the era, Bailey stands confidently on stage with a backdrop featuring Saint Louis as its centerpiece. Her attire, complete with an apron and mid-century clothing, adds authenticity to her portrayal of a character from that time period. Bailey's African American heritage is proudly displayed through her radiant presence, breaking barriers and paving the way for future generations of performers. With a deck of playing cards held playfully in her hand, she exudes both elegance and mischief simultaneously. Van Vechten masterfully captures every detail of Bailey's expressive face - from her wide smile to the sparkle in her eyes - allowing viewers to feel as though they are witnessing one of her electrifying performances firsthand. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to Pearl Bailey's immense talent and enduring legacy within American entertainment history. It is truly a treasure for any admirer of music, theater, or cultural milestones alike.
