Om maleriet
When Sarah Smith Logan sat for this portrait in 1808, she was just 14 years old. The painting captures her on the eve of her marriage to Maryland lawyer and landowner William Clarke. With her rosy cheeks, delicate curls, intricate lace shawl, and shimmering blue dress, Logan is portrayed as an elegant and stylish young woman on the brink of a major life transition.
The portrait was likely commissioned by the sitter’s father, Samuel Logan, a prosperous merchant who had longstanding connections to James Peale and his brother, painter Charles Willson Peale. James, Charles, and their descendants were among the leading artists in early 19th-century America. Hanging nearby are other works by members of the Peale family, including a still life by James’s daughter, Sarah Miriam Peale, and a monumental portrait of George Washington by Charles Willson Peale.
