In 1949, 2500 glass photographic plates were found under the porch of a house in Setauket. These photographs were taken in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by Hal B. Fullerton. They were rescued and donated to the Suffolk County Historical Society and in 2009, Neil Scholl volunteered his services to convert the glass plates to digital images.
12 L.I. Landscape artists have been invited to create paintings based on these locations for this exhibit.
They are:
Nancy Bueti-Randall, Esther Marie Chagaris, Cynthis Crowell, Anthony Davis, Elisabeth Greaf, Larry Johnston, Flo Kemp, Jane McGraw-Teubner, Jim Molloy, Dough Reina, Eileen Sanger and Jonathan van Brunt.
