Happy Caturday! Check out this very cool photo from our Photography Collection - it’s a 1978 image of Julie Merz, daughter of architects Joseph and Mary Merz, and her cat, inside of their home at 48 Willow Place, Brooklyn (for double Caturday action, there’s also a cat poster on the wall). The photo is one of many in our collection by photographer Dinanda Nooney, who in 1978 and 1979 did a series of black and white prints of almost 200 individuals and families in their Brooklyn homes called "At Home In Brooklyn: The Nooney Brooklyn Photographs." It’s hot outside - stay in and browse, and check out a piece of Brooklyn history. Think a cat still lives at 48 Willow Place? Hmmm, we wonder. Happy Caturday!
Hey NYPL, since you don’t have ask enabled, hopefully you will read this and take note that your thumbnail of this photo (Image ID: 1563536) enlarges to a totally different image (Image ID: 834505) in the NYPL digital gallery.
Also - Is that an inflatable camera balloon??
