194B: A walk in New York City

In the late 1980’s t had a lovely book about a middle-aged woman who lived in an apartment with a cat. She gathers up her coat and shopping bag and purse and goes for a walk throughout the city including a stop at the Guggenheim Museum. There was no text, only the loveliest muted color drawings. I’d love to be able to share this book with my grandchildren.

    A woman carrying a shopping bag passes all the sights of the city on the way to her apartment, then hangs on her wall the painting she has bought: a cityscape.

    Could it possibly be “The City” by Douglas Florian. A wordless picture book published in 1982. A woman carrying a shopping bag passes all the sights of the city on the way to her apartment, then hangs on her wall the painting she has bought: a cityscape.
