EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photograph titled "True lovers of the muse, c. 1902" we are transported back in time to witness a beautiful moment shared by two African American musicians. The image, captured by renowned photographer William Henry Jackson, showcases their undeniable passion for music and their instruments. With their banjo and guitar in hand, these talented individuals exude an infectious joy as they strum away on their stringed companions. Their fingers gracefully dance across the timber strings, creating harmonious melodies that fill the air with soulful tunes. The genuine smiles on their faces speak volumes about the deep connection they have with both each other and their craft. It is evident that music has become an integral part of their lives - a source of solace, expression, and unity. This photograph not only celebrates the power of music but also sheds light on a significant period in American history. It serves as a reminder that amidst adversity and discrimination, art can transcend boundaries and bring people together. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the profound impact that artists like these have had on shaping our cultural landscape. Their talent knows no bounds; it transcends race or social status. Through Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, this extraordinary piece allows us to appreciate the rich heritage embedded within African American musical traditions while honoring those who paved the way for future generations to express themselves through melody
