(Virtual) ‘Pets and the City’ with The New York Historical

Via Zoom.

This presentation explores the visual history of New Yorkers and their animal companions over the last two and a half centuries, tracing the ever-evolving relationship between Gotham’s people and its animals, as the city grew increasingly urbanized and industrialized.

The exhibition surveys the evolution of pets – from their presence among the Lenape and the hunting culture of settlers, through their insinuation into the urban family and into the pampered pets of today.
