"The Steamboat Daniel S. Miller" is a maritime painting by the American folk artist James Bard, who is renowned for his detailed and accurate depictions of steamboats and other vessels of the 19th century. Created in 1863, this work exemplifies Bard's meticulous attention to the architectural and functional aspects of the vessels he portrayed, reflecting the industrial and technological advancements of the era.

The painting features the eponymous steamboat, which was named after Daniel S. Miller, a prominent figure in the steamboat industry. The vessel is depicted in profile, cutting through the water with its paddle wheels prominently displayed, a common characteristic of Bard's work. The steamboat is adorned with flags and other embellishments that reflect the pride and elegance of maritime travel during the period.

James Bard, along with his brother John Bard, contributed significantly to the documentation of American maritime history through their art. James Bard's works are particularly valued for their historical accuracy and the insight they provide into the design and operation of 19th-century steamboats. "The Steamboat Daniel S. Miller" is not only a work of art but also an important historical record, capturing the essence of an era when steam-powered vessels dominated America's rivers and harbors.

This painting, like many of Bard's, would have been commissioned by the steamboat's owners or captains as a testament to their investment and as a symbol of their status. Today, "The Steamboat Daniel S. Miller" is appreciated for its artistic merit as well as its contribution to the historical narrative of American transportation and industry. It stands as a testament to James Bard's legacy as one of the foremost chroniclers of America's maritime heritage in the visual arts.
