So amazing that this outstanding collection belongs to a University Art Museum ….just another amazing for Princeton….

If you are familiar with the Cleveland Museum of Art collection,  the Princeton collection includes several similar, and not so similar pieces by the same artists.

This version of the Charles Wilson Peale’s George Washington at Battle of Princeton, similar but very different…
