Description

The good improvisational American jazz musicians of the mid-20th century inspired a generation of photographers to develop a looser, moodier style of visual expression. That evocative manner is on striking display in The Jazz Image. Covering six decades of performers —from Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington to John Coltrane and Miles Davis—this distinctive collection is as much a comprehensive catalogue of jazz greats as this is a salute to the photographers who captured them.

Lee Tanner, a number one authority on jazz photography, has decided on works—by such noted jazz photographers as Herman Leonard, Bob Willoughby, Milt Hinton, and Bill Claxton—which are iconic, candid, explosive, and intimate. They supply a simultaneous take a look at jazz, photography, and The usa from 1935 into the 1990s.
