    Charles Pickering was commissioned to photograph public works for the government architect James Barnet in 1870. The photographs themselves were intended for display at the London Exhibition of 1873; Pickering was previously engaged as the official photographer to the Metropolitan Intercolonial Exhibition of 1870. Photographers such as Charles Nettleton and the firm of Cox & Luckin were given similiar commissions in Melbourne as photography played an increasingly important role in the work of government departments. (The collection is on the State Libray of N.S.W. database. This database has a facility to view photographs in a high quality resolution which is really the best way to view the photographs - because of size constraints I will post a link to the high resolution version beneath each photograph).

    Anna Pendleton Schenck (d. 1915) was an architect in New York; she and Marcia Mead founded an architecture firm together just a few years before Schenck's passing. The New York Times snarked in its headline that "GIRL ARCHITECTS ORGANIZE A FIRM....Houses They Design Will Have Plenty of Closets." In March 1915, Schenck & Mead won a design competition sponsored by the City Club of Chicago, with their plans for a neighborhood center in the Bronx. Later that year, Miss Schenck died from pneumonia at New York Hospital, age 41. Her obituary says she was born in Brooklyn, daughter of Rev. Noah Hunt Schenck (1825-1885), rector at St. Ann's Protestant Episcopal Church of Brooklyn; that she was one of the first women to earn a degree at Columbia University; and that she studied architecture in Paris, under Aubretin.
