About the piece
Painted in 1846 by Henry Lewis, this luminous oil painting captures Saint Louis during its period of rapid growth. The scene transitions from a shaded, rustic foreground featuring travelers and covered wagons to the bustling riverfront populated with steamboats, all set beneath a soft, glowing sky.
