Columbus Museum of Art George Wesley Bellows (1882-1925) was an American painter who lived and produced most of his work at the start of the twentieth century. Known for bold depictions of urban life in New York City, Bellows captures American pastimes based on his love of athletics. Bellows' style mixes dark atmospheres with bright light and geometrical shapes with long brushstrokes giving his scenes a sense of perpetual, fluid motion. These hallmarks of his style allowed Bellows to depict the grittiness of American society, a popular movement amongst turn-of-the-century realist artists. Although boxing scenes are Bellows' major contribution to art history, he later cultivates a more refined style and develops his use of light and dark to characterize the griminess of urban life fueled by the political and social themes of his time.
