Charles Willson Peale, 1781 - Walter Stewart (1756-1796) - tirage d'art

What specifically does the curator team of the Yale University Art Gallery write about this artwork from the naturalist, politician and painter Charles Willson Peale? (© Copyright - Yale University Art Gallery - Galerie d'art de l'Université de Yale)

Twenty-year-old Walter Stewart immigrated to America from Ireland in 1776 to join the fight for independence, rapidly rising in the ranks of the Continental army. By 1781 he was colonel-in-charge of the Thirteenth and Third Pennsylvania Regiments. Charles Willson Peale captures the jaunty air of “the boy colonel,” who was beloved by his troops and renowned for his bravery. Dressed in uniform with his congressional sword of honor on his hip, Stewart stands in the field with his troops camped in the background. In 1781, the year of his portrait, he married eighteen-year-old Deborah McClenachan, daughter of a wealthy Irish merchant from Philadelphia, and the following year commissioned her portrait from Peale (1991.125.2).
