LANDING OF THE PIONEERS BY SALA BOSWORTH. Massachusetts/Ohio, 1808-1889. Oil on canvas, unsigned. The landing of the original forty eight settlers of Marietta led by Rufus Putnam on April 7, 1788.

He and Charles Sullivan were commissioned to illustrate Dr. Samuel P. Hildreth's 1848 book "Pioneer History of the Ohio Valley". At that time Dr. Hildreth commissioned this painting from Bosworth. Since then it has descended in the Hildreth and Putnam families as follows: Commissioned by Dr. Samuel P. Hildreth (1783-1863), then to his daughter, Mary Ann Hildreth (1808-1842) who married Douglas Putnam (1806-1894), then to their son, Samuel Hildreth Putnam (1835-1911), then to his son, Benjamin Barnes Putnam (1871-1944), and to his son, Benjamin Hay Putnam (1896-1984), and then to Benjamin Hay Putnam, Jr. (1925-2007).
