The Peales were a famous family of American artists. Charles Willson Peale
is best remembered for his portraits of leading figures of the American
Revolution. He painted portraits of Franklin and Jefferson and over a
dozen of George Washington. His life-size portrait of his sons Raphaelle
and Titian was so realistic that George Washington reportedly once tipped
his hat to the figures in the picture.
Charles Willson Peale gave up painting in his middle age and devoted his
life to the Peale museum, which he founded in Philadelphia. The world’s
first popular museum of art and natural science mainly covered paintings
by Peale and his family as Peale found the animals himself and found a
method to make the exhibits more lifelike. The museum’s most popular
display was the skeleton (骷髅) of a huge, extinct elephant, which Peale
unearthed on a New York farm in 1801.
Three of Peale’s seventeen children were also famous artists. Paphaelle
Peale often painted still lives of flowers, fruit, and cheese. His brother
Rembrandt studied under his father and painted portraits of many noted
people, including one of George Washington. Another brother, Rubens Peale,
painted mostly landscapes and portraits.
James Peale, the brother of Charles Willson Peale, specialized in
miniatures (小画像). His daughter Sarah Miriam Peale was probably the first
professional female portrait painter in America.
