The Hammond-Harwood House presents Shadows in a Legacy: The Peale Women.
Sarah Miriam Peale was the niece of the prominent Colonial painter Charles Willson Peale and the youngest of four daughters of James Peale. James Peale was a noted miniaturist and the younger brother of Charles. Sarah Miriam is considered, by many, the first successful American woman portrait artist. The Hammond-Harwood House Collection has a still life painting by Sarah’s older sister, Margaretta Angelica Peale.
