Etchings of Trenton

The etchings in this collection depict a wide range of Trenton locations, including:

• Industrial districts and canal systems
• Streets and residential neighborhoods
• Churches, synagogues, and meeting houses
• Civic buildings and municipal spaces
• Transportation corridors and riverfront scenes

Collectively, these images trace Trenton’s growth from a canal‑powered industrial city to a modern urban center. Many of the scenes Bradshaw depicted no longer exist in their original form, making the etchings invaluable as historical records as well as works of art.
