030 George Caleb Bingham

In an age when the camera was not widely available, Bingham captured unique portrayals of his fellow citizens in Missouri and their way of life. Bingham's paintings not only preserve a legacy of America's rivers before the steamboat era, but evoked a spirit of river life rarely captured in art. I encourage you to do an internet search for his work to enjoy these early masterpieces and wonderful river scenes. For more great historical stories, visit:
