1960 · N.p.
by Duke Ellington (subject); Vytas Valaitis (photographer)
N.p.: N.p., 1960. Vintage oversize borderless photograph of Duke Ellington playing the piano, circa 1960. Stamp of photographer Vytas Valaitis on the verso, along with the label of PIX agency.
Although Ellington's career had flagged throughout the postwar years, his landmark appearance at the 1956 Newport Jazz Festival marked an significant upwards turn in his career, resulting in a new recording contract with Columbia Records, and several jobs scoring films—most notably Otto Preminger's "Anatomy of a Murder" (1959).
