Coleman Hawkins and Roy Eldridge. Festival du Jazz, Cannes 1958.

Trumpeter Roy Eldridge, left, and saxophonist Coleman Hawkins perform with intense concentration at the Festival du Jazz in Cannes, 1958. Eldridge, with his eyes closed, wears a pinstriped suit jacket as he plays his instrument. To his right, Hawkins, also with eyes closed, is dressed in a dark suit with a light-colored tie and a white pocket square. In the background, a dark, pleated curtain hangs, and a vintage-style microphone is visible on a stand.
