And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.

Suddenly I love baseball...

I need someone from the US explain this to me, incl why this man seems very delicious... and I always thought basebal was a game played by old non fit men in too tight outfits... well, the outfit bit fortunately did not change - @mrs-hardy-hunnam-butler-pascal ... any insights?

The Jolly Flatboatmen

Artist: George Caleb Bingham (American, 1811-1879)

Date: 1846

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, United States

Description

George Caleb Bingham was one of the most important American painters of genre subjects in the mid-19th century. His series of scenes of life and work on the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers established his reputation in his own day and are today recognized as his finest creations. The Jolly Flatboatmen, along with Fur Traders Descending the Missouri (1845, Metropolitan Museum of Art), are the masterpieces of Bingham’s river pictures and icons of American art. In 1847, the American Art-Union, which had purchased The Jolly Flatboatmen directly from the artist, produced a large mezzotint of it that was distributed to its members (approximately 10,000) throughout the country, immediately making it one of the best-known works of art of its era. It depicts a group of men who, after accomplishing the hard work of rowing their flatboat upstream and loading it with cargo, are now relaxing and enjoying music and dancing. Bingham’s careful attention to detail is everywhere evident - a raccoon pelt hanging from a nail; a coil of rope; a turkey, which sticks its head out between the slats of the crate below the dancing man; a blue shirt hanging to dry. The composition is at once dynamic - the dancing man and the musicians - and elegantly stable in the way Bingham arranged the figures to form an isosceles triangle. The painting survives in superb condition, with its subtle brushwork, soft colors, and precise drawing intact.
