This work was exhibited alongside a painting which depicts a man lying next to a tree trunk with a gun in his hand, The Concealed Enemy. While the sky at this painting's top left is merely hazy, that at the top right features many dark clouds. A dead tree with one branch jutting into the sky is visible in the background, in front of two live trees that appear to be blown to the right by wind. One figure in this work leans on a table containing two tasseled pieces of (*) fabric, as well as a dead bird, and wears dark red pants to contrast with his checkered blue shirt. The rightmost figure in this work wears a red and yellow "liberty cap" and holds an oar, and debate exists over whether the leftmost is a dog, cat, or bear cub. For 10 points, name this work depicting two men rowing a canoe down the titular river, painted by George Caleb Bingham.
