This lively photograph by Uwe Rau captures jazz icon Ella Fitzgerald surrounded by fans at the Eden Saloon in Berlin, 1967. A famous venue in West Berlin’s vibrant jazz scene, the Eden Saloon drew American artists during a time when culture served as soft diplomacy in a politically divided city. Fitzgerald beams at the center of a tightly packed, adoring crowd, embodying both her magnetic presence and the deep enthusiasm for jazz in postwar Germany. – In excellent condition.
