Additional Information
Inarguably one of the most influential cultural icons of the twentieth century, the so-called King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley, is seen here in the developing phase of his career, which would shape the landscape of popular music and film to this day, influencing musicians around the world who continue to emulate his imagery and blend of American Blues, Gospel, and Country music. Pictured here in 1956, Presley was a provocative performer whose singular style took the world by storm and broke race barriers during the transformative years of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s.
His legacy and iconic performances on The Ed Sullivan Show in the early portions of his career remain defining moments. Born in Tupelo, Mississippi, Presley's career reached its peak in the 1950s. In a move that surprised many, he joined the US military, serving in the Army and reaching the rank of Sergeant. This act of patriotism and selflessness added another layer to his already multifaceted persona. Presley's first single, 'Heartbreak Hotel,' was released in the same year as this picture, sweeping the nation as his star began to rise. His controversial dance moves made him one of the most sought after, and controversial, acts in the world, drawing huge crowds to his live performances and unprecedented viewership for his television appearances.
This iconic photograph remains an enduring testament to Presley's legacy. Its distinctive aesthetic and signature style immediately transport the viewer back in time, creating an indelible link.
