Description

Arriving in New York in 1904, George Bellows (1882
–
1925) depicted America on the move. In a twenty-year
career cut short by his untimely death at age forty-two,
Bellows painted the rapidly growing modern city, its
bustling crowds, skyscrapers, and awe-inspiring
construction projects, as well as its bruising boxers,
street urchins, and New Yorkers both hard at work and
enjoying their leisure pastimes. He also captured the
rugged beauty of New York’s rivers and the grandeur of
coastal Maine. This documentary includes original footage
shot in New York City and Maine; images of Bellows’
paintings, drawings, and prints; and archival footage
and photographs.
