The Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts, has recently completed a restoration of the east parlor (Figs. 1, 3, and 5) in its Peirce-Nichols House to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Samuel McIntire's birth. Commissioned by Jerathmiel Peirce, an import merchant, at the time of the marriage of his daughter Sarah (1780-1835) to Captain George Nichols in 1801, the room is one of the most important surviving neoclassical interiors in the United States. Using extensive new research, the parlor has been restored to its original appearance, revealing the complex role McIntire played in all aspects of its creation.
