Navigating the West: George Caleb Bingham and the River

St Louis Art Museum

NOW CLOSED

Dubbed ‘the Missouri artist’, George Caleb Bingham moved to the state as a child and, by the 1840s, began painting the scenes of western life for which he is now famous. ‘Navigating the West: George Caleb Bingham and the River’ celebrates his iconic depictions of frontier life by bringing together his river paintings and drawings for the first time in decades.
