| Norman Rockwell (1894-1978), American painter
and illustrator, best known for his magazine covers and illustrations for such
prominent American periodicals as the Saturday Evening Post, the
Ladies' Home Journal, and Look. Rockwell was born in New York
City, and he trained there at the Art Students League. His favorite subjects
were everyday events that celebrated small-town life and patriotic themes. The
scenes were often humorous and executed with minute attention to detail so
realistic that his paintings frequently resemble photographs. He also designed
many posters and painted a famous series, The Four Freedoms, based on
principles pronounced by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1941
and incorporated into the Atlantic Charter. From 1926 to 1976 he
illustrated the Boy Scout Calendar. Rockwell's autobiography, My
Adventures as an Illustrator, was published in 1959. |
