Caroline Amelia Powell 1852-1934 (Wood-engraver)
When we heard that the New York Public Library had released 180,000 high resolution digital images into the public domain our first thought was: Any Wellesley pics in there?
Sure enough, there are, mainly of Wellesley College, with a smattering of good old Hunnewell stuff. They even shared some shaky GIFS (moving images).

Here’s a sampling of more images, and feel free to poke around in the database yourself if you’re interested in finding something in particular. If you think you’re seeing double with some of these, that’s because some of the images are presented in stereoscopic format.
