George Bellows was American realist painter of the early 20th century, best known for his tough portrayals of life in New York City. George Bellows was born in Columbus, Ohio, and studied art at the New York School of Art with another American painter Robert Henri. Bellows is associated with the Ashcan School Movement, known for their paintings of gritty scenes of the poorer neighborhoods of New York City. Although Bellows famously produced a series of paintings showing New York and the surrounding suburbs in snow, he is best known for his fight scenes of amateur boxers. George Bellows painting Stag at Sharkeys is probably his most famous oil painting.
