PHILADELPHIA — A portrait of General George Washington, depicted on the 1777 battlefield at Princeton-Nassau Hall, was the top lot of more than 250 offered at Freeman’s | Hindman on April 29. Painted not from life but copied from Charles Willson Peale’s “Convention” portrait by Peale’s nephew, Charles Peale Polk (1767-1822), between 1791 and 1793, it had provenance to Darius Ogden Mills (1825-1910); Ogden Mills Reid (1882-1947), owner of the New York Herald Tribune; and then to Ambassador Ogden Rogers Reid (1925-2019), who hung the portrait at the American Embassy in Tel Aviv, Israel, during his 1959-61 tenure there. Estimated at $200/300,000, it sold to an institution, for $406,900, including buyer’s premium. A more extensive sale review will appear in a future issue.
