Condition: Near fine. Stunning image of Billie Holiday at the height of her fame, taken by one of the most important photographers in the history of jazz. Robert Parent (1923-1987) was one of the pioneers of jazz photography. He combined a keen eye and appreciation for his subjects with a technical know-how that allowed him to capture images that eluded lesser practitioners. Determined not to disrupt performances, he developed a technique that became known as "available light photography" which allowed him to work in the dark environments of clubs and theaters. Using his Pressman Speed Graphic camera, Parent was able to quietly snap pictures without disturbing the performers, a technique on vivid display in this iconic image capturing Billie Holiday dramatically spotlighted onstage accompanied by pianist Bud Powell and drummer Art Tatum. This concert, mounted at Carnegie Hall (one of Holiday's favorite venues, where she played more than 20 times during her career), also featured performances by Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and Stan Kenton and his Orchestra. During his life, Parent's images appeared regularly in DOWNBEAT and METRONOME, as well as more mainstream books and publications. He also provided images for numerous album covers (designing many himself) for labels like Mingus's Debut. Most recently he was the subject of a 2019 NEW YORK TIMES article by Peter Facini entitled "Is This the Greatest Photo in Jazz History?" His photos are among the most influential of postwar jazz, capturing it at the height of its cultural and artistic importance. A striking image by a true innovator in the field. 11'' x 14''. Original double-weight black-and-white gelatin silver photograph. Later strike, likely ca. 1970s. Photographer's studio stamp to verso, with reproduction rights stamp below and presumed inventory number penciled above. A few faint scratches to lower third of image. Else sharp and clean.

Condition: Very good plus. A rare image - considered by many "the greatest photo in jazz history" (THE NEW YORK TIMES) - of Charlie Parker, Thelonius Monk, Charles Mingus, and Roy Haynes performing at NYC's Open Door on September 13, 1953. Robert Parent (1923-1987) was one of the pioneers of jazz photography. He combined a keen eye and appreciation for his subjects with a technical know-how that allowed him to capture images that eluded lesser practitioners. Determined not to disrupt performances, he developed a technique that became known as "available light photography," which allowed him to work in the dark environments of clubs and theaters. Using his Pressman Speed Graphic camera, Parent was able to quietly snap pictures without disturbing the performers, a technique on display in this iconic image. Parent had received a tip that Parker might be sitting in with Monk's trio, and his photos from that night (the only known of this event) capture the only time these four giants would play together. This photo would soon appear in LIFE, but over the decades has since gone on to legendary status, perfectly capturing the improvisational, intimate, and collaborative nature of jazz. It was most recently the subject of a 2019 NEW YORK TIMES article by Peter Facini entitled "Is This the Greatest Photo in Jazz History?"

Photographer's studio stamp to verso, with reproduction rights stamp below and presumed inventory number penciled above. Some light edgewear and several faint creases, especially along top.
