Arvell Shaw. Festival du Jazz, Cannes 1958.
Bassist Arvell Shaw is captured in a moment of intense focus while performing at the Festival du Jazz in Cannes in 1958. The grainy, black-and-white composition is intimate, emphasizing the connection between the musician and his upright bass. Dramatic lighting casts strong highlights on the side of his face, his expertly positioned hands, and the body of the instrument, while the rest of the scene is enveloped in deep shadow. A ring on his right hand catches the light.
