Sargent House Museum, House museum in Gloucester, United States.
The Sargent House Museum exhibits period furniture, American decorative arts, and family portraits within a high Georgian architectural structure at 49 Middle Street.
Built in 1782, this residence belonged to Judith Sargent Murray, an early American feminist writer who advocated for women's education and independence.
The museum displays works by notable American artists including Christian Gullager, Thomas Sully, James Frothingham, and landscape prints by Fitz Henry Lane.
Guided tours of the museum operate during weekends from Memorial Day through Columbus Day, with access to exhibitions and a gift shop.
The central staircase features an undercut spiral newel and dual types of spiral balusters, which the Metropolitan Museum of Art attempted to acquire in 1915.
