Rembrandt Peale's portrait of Horatio Greenough is a striking example of American portraiture from the early 19th century. The painting depicts Greenough, a prominent sculptor of the period, in a formal pose, dressed in a dark coat and a crisp white collar. The artist’s meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of Greenough's face, lends a sense of realism and gravitas to the work. This portrait, created by one of the foremost American painters of the era, provides a glimpse into the life and work of a key figure in the development of American art.
