“What a strange idea. Love isn’t feeling. If it were, I wouldn’t be able to love. Cherubim don’t have feelings.”

The “First Lady of Song,” Ella Fitzgerald, was born 100 years ago today.

We’re celebrating the centennial of her birth and the legendary career that followed with this portrait on view at our National Portrait Gallery. Dizzy Gillespie, on the right, is all of us as he gazes at Lady Ella in song.

The photographer, William P. Gottlieb, learned to use a camera so that he could include images in his weekly music column for The Washington Post. Today, his photos of jazz musicians from the 1930s and ’40s are regarded as invaluable visual records of jazz’s Golden Age. 

Read more about Fitzgerald’s rise to fame and this portrait, a recent museum acquisition which has never been shown before.

More pieces from her life in our collection in our Twitter Moment.

“There’s a spirit in trees that’s very deep, and in order to produce a fine piece of furniture, the spirit of a tree lives on.” —George Nakashima

Mid-century craftsman George Nakashima, who firmly believed in the spiritual power of trees, made beautiful pieces of wooden furniture that embrace natural form.

It’s National Selfie Day. Artists have used self-portraits for centuries to do the same thing we do, record our personal history. What would they have snapped, tweeted, or grammed with a front-facing camera or a selfie-stick? Regardless, they would be happy to know that the tradition of self-portraiture is alive and well.
