1923
The Union League Club presented Exhibition of Portraits by Early American Portrait Painters in New York in 1923. The exhibition brought together early American painted portraits, preserving historical sitter identifications and individual catalogue references. Documented examples include Jeremiah Theus’s Mr. Motte (c. 1760; oil on canvas) and Thomas Sully’s Thomas Alston (1826; oil on canvas). The reconstructed checklist is partial, and exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
