Last year’s annual meeting offered three speakers on planning for the 250th anniversary of our nation. This year, the Society is flipping its lens backward to focus on images of what Trenton looked like before photography. Following a brief business meeting, Sally Lane will present “Picturing 18th Century Trenton.”

 

Some of the buildings frequented during the Revolution survived well into the 19th century and were photographed before being demolished. Their owners’ portraits ended up in museums, while furniture and small items can be found in private and public collections. Putting them back together digitally provides a sense of what Trenton looked like.
