Bingham, Fur Traders on Missouri River, 1845

Fur Traders on Missouri River, 1845

George Caleb Bingham was an American painter known for his scenes of the Western frontier. Bingham was born in Virginia on his grandfather’s farm but moved to Missouri Territory with his family at a young age.

At this time French and English settlers as well as Osage Indians inhabited the land. The Bingham family opened an inn called The Square and Compass. At the inn Bingham met Chester Harding, one of America’s greatest portraitists. Harding had been painting a portrait of the legendary folk hero, Daniel Boone.

Bingham was interested in working as an artist and assisted Harding with his portraits. Bingham was able to study alongside Harding, viewing his many studies and sketches. In 1823, when Bingham’s father died, his mother moved the family to a farm across the river called Arrow Rock. During this period of time Bingham learned to be a woodworker, working under Reverand Jesse Green.

Bingham returned to working with the painter Chester Harding, who strongly encouraged him to pursue his interest in art. Bingham was given his first artist materials from Harding and began painting portraits on his own.
