Princeton University has been a popular subject for decades. This photo dates back to 1906!
It's easy to see why! The campus is picture-perfect.
There are many snap-worthy sites. Nassau Hall, the university's oldest building, dates back to 1754. It briefly served as the capitol building of a fledgling nation - the United States of America.
Firestone Library is home to over 7 million books, making it one of the largest libraries in the world by number of volumes.
Alexander Hall, built in the 1890s, is home to the Richard Auditorium - a 900-seat theater.
It is also home to a unique Tiffany glass mosaic entitled Homeric Story.
The university's nondenominational chapel is also stunning. One of the largest university chapels in the world, its iconography includes stained glass, stonemasonry, and wood carvings. In 1960, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered a sermon here.
East Pyne Hall was built in the late 1800s and was once part of the school's original library. It mainly serves as an administration building today.
The Princeton University Art Museum is also a sight to behold, indoors and out. The museum is free and open to the public. It features over 90,000 diverse works of art.
The Shea Rowing Center on Lake Carnegie is considered one of the finest rowing facilities in the nation. It also happens to make for some great photographs.
Princeton University is a true treasure for photographers and its museum can't be missed. While we can't visit right now, much of the collection is available virtually. Learn more about the art and online collection here. What's your favorite photography destination in New Jersey?
