Description |
"George Washington After the Battle of Princeton", by Charles Willson Peale, at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland, Ohio. Oil on canvas, 1782. Charles Willson Peale (1741-1827) was the most celebrated American artist of the Revolutionary period. He is best known for his numerous portraits of American political leaders, thinkers, statesmen, and inventors of the late 1700s and early 1800s. Peale is known for two portraits of Washington at the Battle of Princeton. Peale himself was present for the battle, and knew Washington very well. "George Washington at the Battle of Princeton" (1784) is a one-of-a-kind painting. But this image, "George Washington After the Battle of Princeton", finished in 1782, was copied more than a dozen times by Peale for various owners. "At" shows Washington with a sword in his hand. "After" shows Washington leaning on a cannon. (The Cleveland Museum of Art displays this painting with the wrong title.) "After" was painted as a full-length portrait, with some foreground in front of Washington's feet. This copy is truncated, and only depicts Washington to the knees. It was first owned by Colonel Frisby Tilghman of Talbot County, Maryland, and inherited by his son-in-law, Thomas Jefferson McKaig. He willed it to his son, Frisby Tilghman McKaig. He consigned it to the Macbeth Gallery in 1915, which sold it to the Cleveland Museum of Art in 1917. |
