EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled 'Portrait of Charles Delaunay, 52nd Street, New York, N.Y. ca. Oct. 1946,' was masterfully captured by renowned American photographer William Paul Gottlieb. The image transports us back to the 1940s, an era known as the Golden Age of Jazz, on the bustling streets of Manhattan Island, New York City, New York State, USA. Charles Delaunay, a Frenchman, is depicted in the photograph, dressed in a stylish suit and smoking a cigarette, exuding an air of sophistication and confidence. Delaunay was a significant figure in the jazz world, serving as the founder and manager of the renowned Hot Club de France. His presence on 52nd Street, a historic hub for jazz music in New York City, underscores the global reach and influence of this vibrant art form during the decade. The image, captured in October 1946, is a testament to the rich cultural exchange that took place during this time. The portrait showcases the fusion of American and European influences, both in Delaunay's personal style and the broader jazz scene. The photograph is a precious piece of heritage art, capturing a moment in history that continues to resonate with jazz enthusiasts and art lovers alike. William Paul Gottlieb, a pioneering figure in jazz photography, expertly captured this moment with his camera, using a film negative to preserve the intricacies of the scene. The portrait stands as a powerful reminder of the enduring impact of jazz on fashion, culture, and society during the 1940s.
