The Museum of the city of New York was a fun experience I decided to take my sister with me who also had a great time. Not only is it right across the street from Central Park which was awesome but I have never been to this museum at all and was excited to see what was inside.  We went to the 3rd floor to view the exhibit called “Through a different lense “ but on the wall there was photos of women which caught my attention. It was also titled “ Rebel Women”  it showed what women  was like back in the day. It talked about women’s rights and how the beginning of women freedom came about. They displayed a corset and a red shoe ..the red shoe was worn to show they stand for women’s right so basically they started using there clothing to make a statement. The corset looked to small  and uncomfortable I can’t imagine how women were wearing these things.

 

Then we entered the exhibit “ Through a different lense “ and I don’t know why I noticed this part of the exhibit but they had red walls and black frames for his pictures who were in black and white. I thought that it attracted the pictures more to the eye. It also didn’t distract to much from his pictures the pictures were so cool to see how New Yorkers were like years ago. Capturing different moods and moments in people’s lives. One showed Coney Island still looks the same but then onvioulsy the people were different culture was different in New York. Overall I really enjoyed this trip and would defiantly do this again.
