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!

Coronation of the Sea Queen: “Now you shall be my queen & stay with me forever.” by John Bauer (Swedish, 1882–1918)

Happy 110th birthday to Dorothea Tanning. This picture marked an early turning point for the artist, who was coming into her own as a member of the Surrealist group in New York. “Birthday” depicts the artist as both a flesh-and-blood individual and a guide to an imaginary realm. Tanning creates the dreamlike feeling in this painting in ways both obvious and subtle. The disconcerting perspective of the endless hallways is immediately evident, along with the fantastic creature at her feet. However, the deeply tilted floors and her robe comprised of writhing human bodies require a closer examination of the scene.
