==Youth==
George Wesley<ref>Bellows' middle name was bestowed by his mother in the earnest hope that the child would become a Methodist Bishop.</ref> Bellows was born and raised in [[Columbus, Ohio]].<ref>His family home was a sturdy brick house at 265 East Rich Street in Columbus.</ref> He was the only child of [[George Bellows Sr.|George Bellows]] and Anna Wilhelmina Smith Bellows (he had a half-sister, Laura, 18 years his senior). He was born four years after his parents married, at the ages of fifty (George) and forty (Anna).<ref name="American Collections p. 64">{{citation|editor-last=Roberts|editor-first=Norma J.|title=The American Collections|publisher=[[Columbus Museum of Art]]|year=1988|isbn=0-8109-1811-0|page=[https://archive.org/details/americancollecti0000colu/page/64 64]|url=https://archive.org/details/americancollecti0000colu/page/64}}.</ref> His mother was the daughter of a whaling captain based in [[Sag Harbor, New York|Sag Harbor, Long Island]], and his family returned there for their summer vacations.<ref name="American Collections p. 64"/><ref name=brush>''The boy who chose the brush over baseball'' [[Smithsonian (magazine)|Smithsonian]], June 1992, pp. 58-70</ref> He began drawing well before kindergarten, and his elementary–school teachers often asked him to decorate their classroom blackboards at Thanksgiving and Christmas.<ref name=brush/>

At age 10, George took to athletics, and trained to be a baseball and basketball player. He became good enough at both sports to play semipro ball for years afterward.<ref name=brush/> During his senior year, a baseball scout from the Indianapolis team made him an offer. He declined, opting to enroll at [[Ohio State University]] (1901–1904). There he played for the baseball and basketball teams, and provided illustrations for the ''Makio'', the school's student yearbook. He was encouraged to become a professional baseball player,<ref name="National Gallery of Art">{{citation|title=George Bellows - Biography |publisher=[[National Gallery of Art]] |url=http://www.nga.gov/cgi-bin/tbio?person=2050 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120629223300/http://www.nga.gov/cgi-bin/tbio?person=2050 |url-status=dead |archive-date=June 29, 2012 |access-date=August 7, 2011 }}.</ref> and he worked as a commercial illustrator while a student and continued to accept magazine assignments throughout his life. Despite these opportunities in athletics and commercial art, Bellows desired success as a painter, although his parents didn't encourage it.<ref>{{cite web|title=George Bellows|url=https://www.theartstory.org/artist/bellows-george/|access-date=7 August 2022}}</ref><ref>His pragmatic father strongly urged Bellows to abandon his painting dreams and become a builder, as his father was.</ref> He left Ohio State in 1904, just before he was to graduate, and moved to New York City to study art.<ref name="National Gallery of Art"/>

Bellows was soon a student of [[Robert Henri]], who at the time was teaching at the [[New York School of Art]]. While studying there, Bellows became associated with Henri's "[[The Eight (Ashcan School)|The Eight]]" and the [[Ashcan School]], a group of artists who advocated painting contemporary American society in all its forms.<ref name="National Gallery of Art"/> By 1906, Bellows and fellow art student Edward Keefe had set up a studio at 1947 [[Broadway (Manhattan)|Broadway]].<ref name="American Collections p. 60">{{harvnb|Roberts|1988|p=60}}.</ref>

==New York==
[[File:Bellows CliffDwellers.jpg|thumb|left|250px|''[[Cliff Dwellers (painting)|Cliff Dwellers]],'' (1913), [[Los Angeles County Museum of Art]]]]
Bellows first achieved widespread notice in 1908, when he and other pupils of Henri organized an exhibition of mostly urban studies. While many critics considered these to be crudely painted, others found them welcomely audacious, a step beyond the work of his teacher. Bellows taught at the [[Art Students League of New York]] in 1909, although he was more interested in pursuing a career as a painter. His fame grew as he contributed to other nationally recognized juried shows.

Bellows' urban New York scenes depicted the crudity and chaos of working-class people and neighborhoods, and satirized the upper classes. From 1907 through 1915, he executed a series of paintings depicting New York City under snowfall. In these paintings Bellows developed his strong sense of light and visual texture,<ref>[http://www.tfaoi.com/newsmu/nmus18e.htm George Bellows: Love of Winter] Retrieved July 12, 2007</ref> exhibiting a stark contrast between the blue and white expanses of snow and the rough and grimy surfaces of city structures, and creating an aesthetically ironic image of the equally rough and grimy men struggling to clear away the nuisance of the pure snow. However, Bellows' series of paintings portraying amateur boxing matches were arguably his signature contribution to art history.<ref name="National Gallery of Art"/> They are characterized by dark atmospheres, through which the bright, roughly laid brushstrokes of the human figures vividly strike with a strong sense of motion and direction.

==Social and political themes==
[[File:Waldo Peirce.jpg|thumb|A 1920 portrait painting of [[Waldo Peirce]] by George Bellows, on display at the [[de Young Museum]] in [[San Francisco]]]]
[[File:Blessed are the Peacemakers, Bellows.jpg|thumb|''Blessed are the Peacemakers'' (1917), ''[[The Masses]]'']]
Growing prestige as a painter brought changes in his life and work. Though he continued his earlier themes, Bellows also began to receive portrait commissions, as well as social invitations, from New York's wealthy elite. Additionally, he followed Henri's lead and began to summer in Maine, painting seascapes on [[Monhegan]] and [[Matinicus]] islands.

At the same time, the always socially conscious Bellows also associated with a group of radical artists and activists called "[[the Lyrical Left]]", who tended towards [[anarchism]] in their extreme advocacy of individual rights. He taught at the first [[Modern School (United States)|Modern School]] in New York City (as did his mentor, Henri), and served on the editorial board of the [[Socialism|socialist]] journal ''[[The Masses]]'', to which he contributed many drawings and prints beginning in 1911. However, he was often at odds with other contributors due to his belief that artistic freedom should trump any ideological editorial policy. Bellows also dissented from this circle in his very public support of U.S. intervention in [[World War I]]. In 1918, he created a series of [[lithograph]]s and paintings that graphically depicted atrocities which the Allies said had been committed by Germany during its invasion of Belgium. Notable among these was ''The Germans Arrive'', which gruesomely illustrated a German soldier restraining a Belgian teen whose hands had just been severed. However, his work was also highly critical of the domestic censorship and persecution of antiwar dissenters conducted by the U.S. government under the [[Espionage Act]].

He was also criticized for some of the liberties he took in capturing scenes of war. The artist [[Joseph Pennell]] argued that because Bellows had not witnessed the events he painted firsthand, he had no right to paint them. Bellows responded that he had not been aware that [[Leonardo da Vinci]] "had a ticket to paint the [[Last Supper]]".<ref>{{cite book|last1=Birmingham Museum of Art|title=Birmingham Museum of Art: A Guide to the Collection|publisher=Giles|year=2010|location=London|page=142|url=http://www.birminghammuseumstore.org/bmapu.html|access-date=June 27, 2011|isbn=978-1-904832-77-5|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110910171150/http://www.birminghammuseumstore.org/bmapu.html|archive-date=September 10, 2011}}</ref>

==Later life==

[[File:The Law is Too Slow MET 2835-180.jpg|thumb|''[[The Law Is Too Slow]]'', used in anti-[[lynching]] publications by the [[National Association for the Advancement of Colored People]]]]
As Bellows' later oils focused more on domestic life, with his wife and daughters as beloved subjects, the paintings also displayed an increasingly programmatic and theoretical approach to color and design, a marked departure from the fluid muscularity of the early work.

One of Bellows' central subjects was the sea, and he painted over 250 scenes of it during the course of his career. ''The Fisherman'' (1917), a significant late canvas focusing on the topic that he made while visiting [[Carmel-by-the-Sea, California|Carmel, California]], is in the collection of the [[Amon Carter Museum of American Art]].<ref>{{Cite journal|year=2017|title=New to the Collection|journal=Program|publisher=Amon Carter Museum of American Art|volume=February/July}}</ref>

In addition to painting, Bellows made significant contributions to [[lithography]], helping to expand the use of the medium as a fine art in the U.S. He installed a lithography press in his studio in 1916, and between 1921 and 1924 he collaborated with master printer [[Bolton Brown]] on more than a hundred images. The [[Amon Carter Museum of American Art]] holds one of the largest collections of Bellows' lithographs, a set of 220 prints acquired from the artist's estate in 1985.<ref name=":0">{{Cite book|title=George Bellows: the Artist and His Lithographs, 1916-1924|last1=Myers|first1=Jane|last2=Ayres|first2=Linda|publisher=Amon Carter Museum|year=1988|isbn=0883600595|location=Fort Worth|oclc=18738812|url=https://archive.org/details/georgebellowsart0000myer}}</ref> There are also large collections of his lithographs at the [[Boston Public Library]] and the [[Cleveland Museum of Art]].<ref name=":0" />

Bellows also illustrated numerous books in his later career, including several by [[H.G. Wells]].
[[File:George Bellows House, Woodstock, NY.jpg|right|thumb|Bellows's summer residence in Woodstock, now listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places]]]]
Bellows taught at the [[Art Institute of Chicago]] in 1919. In 1920, he began to spend nearly half of each year in [[Woodstock, New York]], where he built a home for his family.<ref>[http://www.tfaoi.com/aa/4aa/4aa158.htm Leaving the Country: George Bellows at Woodstock] Retrieved July 12, 2007</ref> He died on January 8, 1925, in New York City, of [[peritonitis]], after failing to tend to a ruptured [[vermiform appendix|appendix]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.tfaoi.com/aa/4aa/4aa158.htm|title=Leaving the Country: George Bellows at Woodstock|website=www.tfaoi.com|access-date=August 7, 2019}}</ref> He was survived by his wife, Emma Story Bellows (married 1910), and daughters Anne and Jean. Bellows is buried at [[Green-Wood Cemetery]] in Brooklyn. "Of American artists of the first rank," wrote [[Joyce Carol Oates]], "none had a more tragically foreshortened career than Bellows.... [He was] the most famous American artist of his time."<ref>Oates, Joyce Carol, ''George Bellows: American Artist''. Hopewell, NJ: The Ecco Press, 1995, p. 7.</ref>

Paintings and prints by George Bellows are in the collections of many major and regional American art museums, including the [[Art Museum of Southeast Texas]] in [[Beaumont, Texas]], the [[National Gallery of Art]] in [[Washington, D.C.]], the [[Memorial Art Gallery]] of the [[University of Rochester]], and the Whitney and the [[Museum of Modern Art]] in New York, and [[The Hyde Collection]], in [[Glens Falls, New York]]. The [[Columbus Museum of Art]] in Bellows' hometown also has a sizeable collection of both his portraits and New York street scenes. The [[White House]] acquired his 1919 painting ''Three Children'' in 2007, and it is now displayed in the [[Green Room (White House)|Green Room]].

The [[Whitney Museum]] published a biography of Bellows by fellow artist George William Eggers as part of the American Artists Series. In 1992 it mounted an extensive exhibition of his art (the exhibition was a joint venture with the [[Los Angeles County Museum of Art]]).<ref name=brush/>

The Archives and Special Collections at [[Amherst College]] holds his papers.
