Genrations of Americans have chuckled over, shaken their heads in agreement with, or regognized themselves in Norman Rockwell´s homely settings of American life. Scenes such as that of a young boy leaving home alone for the first time, an expectant father in the waiting room of a maternity ward, a young girl trying out her first bit of makeup, or a nervous couple applying for a marriage license strike a responsive chord in each of us.
The beautiful volume on Rockwell´s America presents a new approach to the work of a greatly loved artist. Organized into sections such as Young Love, Home and Family, Growing up in America, Americans at work, and The Sporting Life, it focuses on Rockwell´s unique skill not only as an illustrator but also as a commentator on twentieth-century life in the United States over a period of more than half a century.
659 illustrations, including 129 in full color.
