Nicholas Rogers”; inscribed in cursive at top of oval spandrel verso “Roger”s/ D. H. I”
Literature: Sellers, Charles Coleman. 1952. <em>Portraits and Miniatures by Charles Willson Peale</em>. Philadelphia: American Philosophical Society, page 185, catalogue number 753. Sellers’ entry for “Rogers, Nicholas”, quotes Peale’s own October 1778 diary entry for this portrait , “...Major Rogers a small whole length 140 dollars unpaid” and goes on to state that it was at some prior point cut down from the original full length to a three-quarter length to fit an oval Victorian frame, “...but with little injury to its attractiveness as a picture. In the portrait the Colonel is portrayed wearing the green sash of an aide-de-camp across his breast. Sellers also notes that this painting has been attributed to James Peale.
According to Sellers, the sitter was born into a wealthy Baltimore family in 1753. After graduating Glasgow University, he found himself in Paris when the War for Independence began. He served as aide-de-camp to General Philippe Charles du Coudray (1738-1777), a French officer who volunteered for service in the Continental Army. After du Coudray, he served General de Kalb (Johann von Robais, Baron de Kalb, 1721-1780), who was mortally wounded by opposing British forces at the Battle of Camden. (Peale would paint de Kalb posthumously in 1782). Rogers retired in 1780 with the rank of Colonel, and returned to life in Baltimore. He designed and built “Druid Hill*”, the country seat of the Rogers and Buchanan families. For additional information on Druid Hill, see photos for a facsimile of the Maryland Historical Society Magazine, September 1949, article on Druid Hill by Edith Rossiter Bevan.

The ship from which these pieces hail was launched as USS YMS-328 in 1942, and spent the bulk of the Second World War in the Aleutian Islands as a minesweeper and patrol craft. She was planned to deploy to Japan when the war ended, and was stricken from the Naval Vessel Register in 1946. In 1948, the ship was privately sold, changing hands again in 1956 and again in 1962, when she was purchased by Hollywood Golden Age icon and leading man, John Wayne, who rechristened her as the Wild Goose. At some point over the following 17 years, Mr. Wayne would commission a porcelain service for his ship, bearing the burgees of the Newport Harbor Yacht Club where she was anchored, and her own.
