Temple on the HillLucian R. Foster (1806?) Daguerreotype, 1846 This famous early photograph of Nauvoo is the only known image taken while the city served as Church headquarters. Focused on the temple, it offers a glimpse of the town the year the Saints were driven out by organized opponents. Note the plethora of young fruit trees in the back yards that testify of the Saints’ dreams of creating permanent homes in this garden city. Copy photograph, Courtesy Church Archives |
