As Robert C. Meade, Jr., Esq., writes in Art in Troubled Times,
The murals of the New York County Courthouse, of which there are 38, have, since their creation during the Great Depression, been widely recognized as treasures, among the outstanding works of such art in the great metropolis of New York, the country’s principal center of artistic life and work.
What follows below are photographs of the murals, highlighting both their artistry and their need for preservation as the courthouse reaches its centennial year in 2027.
