EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait, titled 'Portrait of Margaret Whiting and Johnny Desmond, New York, N.Y. 1946,' is a stunning snapshot of two rising stars of the jazz and pop music scene during the Golden Age of Jazz. The image, created by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, captures the essence of the Forties, a time of change and innovation in American culture. Margaret Eleanor Whiting, a talented vocalist with an elegant and expressive voice, is seen wearing a simple yet chic dress, her eyes focused intently on the card game in progress. Her male counterpart, Johnny Desmond, a versatile singer and actor, dons a casual outfit and a stylish hat, his gaze fixed on the cards in his hand. The pair, surrounded by an air of mystery and intrigue, exudes an undeniable charm and charisma. The setting of the photograph is New York City, the heart of the jazz and pop music scene in the United States during the 1940s. The image captures a moment of leisure and recreation, a brief respite from their demanding professions as singers. The presence of a deck of playing cards adds an element of fun and lightness to the scene, further highlighting the carefree spirit of the era. This photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the United States during the Forties, a time of innovation and creativity in the worlds of jazz, pop music, and fashion. The image, with its timeless appeal and enduring quality, continues to captivate audiences and inspire new generations of artists and creatives.
