What is George Caleb Bingham (Library of American Art) about?

George Caleb Bingham was one of Missouri's and one of American's greatest artists. Raised in central Missouri, he lived as an itinerant painter in St. Louis and, as a mature artist, in Independence and Kansas City. Working before America's vastness was made manageable by a web of roads and railways, Bingham found his subjects in the trappers and boatmen who populated his state's great rivers, the Missouri and the Mississippi. He also depicted social and political life of what was then still the frontier, preserving with timeless, classic dignity the features and spirit of the American democracy. <p>Catalogue to an exhibition opening at the St. Louis Art Museum and traveling to the National Gallery. 85 illustrations, 50 in full color, 192 pages, 8-5/8 x 10" </p>
