NORMAN ROCKWELL Inscribed 11×14 photo on a 13×18 mount, showing Rockwell seated in a tweed jacket and bow tie at Colonial Williamsburg Photograph Mount inscribed and signed: To Karen Williams/sincerely/Norman/Rockwell/March 17’68/Williamsburg/Va. B/w, 11×14 image, 13×8 overall (two surfaces). Accompanied by 1968 newspaper article on Rockwell’s visit to Williamsburg. He painted over 300 covers for the “Saturday Evening Post” from 1916 to 1965 after beginning his career at age 18 as an illustrator for “Boy’s Life”. His art, drawn with attention to detail, had an air of simplicity and sentimentality. Rockwell’s popularity grew because his art seemed to be, for everyday Americans, a mirror-image of real life. Rockwell’s work was also published in several other magazines and on numerous calendars, and his paintings portraying “The Four Freedoms” were distributed as morale-builders and to promote the sale of Victory Bonds during WWII. Rockwell published his autobiography, Norman Rockwell, My Adventures as an Illustrator, in 1960. When this photo was taken, Rockwell was visiting historic Williamsburg to render a series of sketches for a new exhibition hall. Corners and edges creased and worn. Multiple unknown stains around edges. See additional material from these signers. See 1,622 other listings in these categories. Please note that this is an authentically signed item.
