Painting Description
The "Portrait of Thomas Jefferson" by Charles Willson Peale is an iconic representation of the third President of the United States and principal author of the Declaration of Independence. Painted by one of the most prolific American artists of the 18th century, this portrait is an important piece of American art history that captures Jefferson during his years of service to the young nation.
Charles Willson Peale, known for his portraits of leading figures of the American Revolution and the early United States, completed this work in 1791. The portrait is executed in oil on canvas, a medium in which Peale excelled, and showcases his ability to capture the character and stature of his subjects. The painting measures 23 1/2 x 19 1/2 inches (59.7 x 49.5 cm) and is part of the collection at the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C.
In this portrait, Jefferson is depicted in a half-length pose, wearing a black suit with a white ruffled shirt, conveying the fashion of the period as well as the subject's status and sophistication. His gaze is direct and contemplative, suggesting the intellectual prowess for which Jefferson was renowned. The background is muted, drawing the viewer's attention to Jefferson's visage and the details of his attire.
The "Portrait of Thomas Jefferson" is not only a work of art but also a historical document that offers insight into the personal image of one of America's Founding Fathers. It reflects the neoclassical style that was popular at the time, emphasizing rationality and simplicity, which were values associated with the Enlightenment and echoed in Jefferson's own philosophies.
As a testament to its significance, the portrait has been referenced in various scholarly works on American art and history, and it continues to be a subject of study for its artistic merit and as a representation of Thomas Jefferson's enduring legacy.
