Christian,

Are you looking for an image of the Peale family's Philadelphia Museum
(which inhabited a series of buildings in the city from 1786-1830), or
Rembrandt Peale's Peale Museum in Baltimore, or Rubens Peale's Peale Museum
in New York City (which was on Broadway across from City Hall)? If you are
looking for images of the Philadelphia Museum I would recommend getting in
contact with the Library Company of Philadelphia's Print & Photograph
Department, http://www.librarycompany.org/collections/prints/index.htm. I
believe there is also an architectural sketch of the Baltimore museum in
the collection of the American Philosophical Society, who hold the
Peale-Sellers family papers: http://www.amphilsoc.org/library/search.

All the best,

Jeff Nagle
Cols., Ohio
