Alfredo Codona returning from brother Lalo, in the second revolution of a double pirouette. Leonard Farley said this shot was taken in Berlin's Wintergarden. It was during this 1931 engagement that Leitzel fell to her death on Friday, February 13th, in Copenhagen's Music Hall.

That was Codona's legacy. His balletic grace in the air was nothing short of elegant in every move. This is why to this day flyers genuflect at the name of Codona.
