View about 30 portraits by Danish-born Christian Gullager (1759-1826), who painted many wealthy and distinguished Americans, the most illustrious being President George Washington.
Gullager was also known for his decorative representations of the American Eagle. One of his eagles—the standard of the First City Troop of Philadelphia—will also be on view.
