This authentic 1960s color photograph captures the elegant “Passo di Danza” (Step of the Dance) sculpture standing outside the One Woodward Avenue building in Detroit, Michigan, in 1967. Created by renowned Italian sculptor Giacomo Manzù, the bronze figure of a slender ballerina stands on her tiptoes atop a stone pedestal within a serene reflecting pool. The backdrop features the striking mid-century modern architecture of the Minoru Yamasaki-designed skyscraper, with its signature white vertical soaring ribs and a geometric, patterned canopy. Water gently cascades from the base of the statue into the surrounding pool, where small fountain heads are visible just above the surface. This high-resolution scan beautifully preserves the intersection of world-class fine art and corporate modernism in the heart of Detroit’s civic center. This digital download is an exceptional historical record, perfect to print for yourself as a piece of vintage urban wall art.
