Lecture by Laura Jocic, Research Associate at Museums<br />
Victoria and independent curator.<br />
Arriving in Port Phillip from Ireland in 1844, Anne Trotter<br />
was one of many assisted emigrants who, along with<br />
other members of her family, were deemed suitable<br />
emigrants.<br />
Amongst the possessions that Anne packed in her<br />
trunk to start a new life in Australia was her needlework<br />
specimen book.<br />
This lecture will discuss the context of the needlework<br />
book and posit its value to a young female emigrant.<br />
Ticket includes entry into the Gold Museum exhibition ‘A<br />
Victorian Silhouette’, showcasing our collection of 19th<br />
century women’s fashion.<br />
