1940 · N.p.
by Count Basie (subject); Werner Wolff (photographer)
N.p.: N.p., 1940. Vintage borderless photograph of Count Basie at the piano in the recording studio, with several women admiringly looking on through a window in the background, circa 1940s. Stamp of noted German-American photojournalist Werner Wolff on the verso, along with two provenance stamps.
Basie was one of the best known jazz pianist band leaders in history, having begun his career by accompanying silent films and moving on to create his own innovative jazz orchestra, which pioneered techniques like riffing with a large band, emphasizing the rhythm section, and utilizing arrangers to broaden their sound (including a young Quincy Jones).
