George Caleb Bingham grew up in America during the 1800s. His father died when he was only twelve, leaving his son and wife to try and provide for the family. By the time Bingham was 19, however, he was painting portraits for $20 each, often completing a painting in a single day. From there is painting career spread. Bingham traveled all across the United States and spent time abroad as well, studying the Old Masters in Europe at museums such as the Louvre in Paris. |
