Besides all this, he founded the world's first popular museum of natural science and art. Peale's life exemplifies the American experience in the eighteenth century. His paintings~ more than a thousand canvases~ present a superb record of colonial and federal society. Beautifully reproduced here are paintings of Maryland's planter families and Philadelphia's mercantile elite, prosperous New Yorkers and aristocratic Virginians, Revolutionary War leaders and America's first statesmen, scientists and explorers. In mid~life Peale turned to the study of nature and assembled a museum in Philadelphia that was, in its time, the most important institution of its kind in the country. Described and illustrated here is his greatest personal triumph and most significant contribution to science~the discovery, excavation, and mounting of the first complete skeleton of a mastodon ever found. Essays by three distinguished scholars and more than 180 illustrations of Peale's paintings and actual objects from his museum provide an absorbing overview and appraisal of the life and achievements of this remarkable, complex and altogether engaging artist~naturalist. A selected bibliography and a catalogue that includes provenance and references, size, date, medium, location, and accession numbers for Peale's paintings, museum specimens, and artifacts make the book an indispensable reference for anyone interested in American art and history.
