	'In sympathy with the heart': Rembrandt Peale, an American artist and the traditions of European art
		While some historians have seen Rembrandt Peale as “complex and puzzling” (E. Richardson), others have seen him as an artist who lived and worked in “the shadow of his father” (Lillian B. Miller).
		By contrast, this study seeks to unscramble the puzzle, bring Rembrandt Peale out from under the shadow of his father, and establish his vital links to the traditions of European art, as well as to the times in which he lived and painted.
		Here, it will be demonstrated how they reveal the well-springs of Peale's art, his commitment to an art of strong visual and emotional effect that sought to be “in sympathy with the heart” of an emerging, diverse nineteenth century American audience seeking culture and entertainment.
