Mss.B.P31
Series 1: Correspondence | 1675-1960 | 27 boxes, 8.5 linear feet | ||
Spanning from the end of the seventeenth century to the second half of the twentieth century, with the bulk of the material from the nineteenth century, the series includes correspondence from members of the Peale and Sellers families. Principal correspondents include Charles Willson Peale, Rembrandt Peale, Titian Ramsay Peale, Benjamin Franklin Peale, Nathan Sellers, Coleman Sellers, and George Escol Sellers. Other correspondents include George Washington Parke Custis, Eliza Burd Patterson Peale (Mrs. Rubens), Harriet Friel Peale (Mrs. Charles Willson Peale, Rubens Peale, Angelica Peale Robinson, and Albert Charles Peale, who appears to have assembled a portion of the collection. Principle topics discussed are the Philadelphia Museum, natural history, and Charles Willson Peale's portraits. Various business ventures of the Sellers' family are also represented, including inventions and investments in steam engines and locomotives. The time frame of the series ensures that many major American events are mentioned, such as the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the Civil War. Large portions of the correspondence refer to the Peale family works of art and are of particular interest to art historians. | ||||
